The thing that concerns me is that running that lean to acheive those numbers will not grant you long-term life of the motor.

I hope youre not running into the 14:1 range otherwise say bye bye to your motor in a few months.

IMO tuning to the point of hearing detonation is pretty risky, especially if you can't get on it in the lower rpms.

Great job though, and Im very happy for you. I would have the vortech route if not the turbo.

I also just got my kit from the same group buy... I just haven't had time to install it yet.

Do you think colder plugs might help get rid of the ping? I want to be able to floor it in any gear.

Good point Justin.
I think it might help.
BTW when are you going to install your kit?

Why would you care about flooring it at 4k in 3rd gear?

We kept all my A/F ratios around 13- 13.5 using a tailpipe sensor. When we tried running any richer, the car ran like crap!

I have no idea. Comptech will be coming out with their aftercooler in August, can't wait.
