Not this A/F raito bs that we can do and even then, I don't think A/F ratio adjustments on a car with full bolt ons will really make a difference. Tony at FI kinda proved that when they had cleaned up the A/F ratios when the LTH's were being tested. Everytime I return to this site I always see people talking about how after a tune the gains will increase. This isn't an LS7, it's a VQ. I am supprised to see a lot of F/I set ups running for so long without any majoy issues or at least, we haven't heard of any.
Why, what is so extreme about our tuning?
The only item we are unable to adjust right now is VVEL, which really has been a zero issue with basic forced induction. Now, if you want to lower the compression ratio, build the motor, or something else extreme then VVEL will be a factor but really it is a non-issue.
