idk i don't like it running that lean...thats as rich as it would go with the safc though. The ecu kept throwing it in limp mode if it went any richer due to the maf voltage being off so much. I just redid the entire set up on the car and i'm just going to chip the ecu so it can be tuned alot better. The only reason the turbo ever went on is b/c most all the parts were laying around here and it cost practically nothing to put the turbo on the car.

yeah uberdata. The prob wasn't really that it was 15:1 at part throttle. It would run between 13.5 and 14 at full throttle and thats extremely bad. The timing was turned back all the way and it was running through a 1.75" factory exhaust system so you can imagine how bad it was running. It was still better than stock though.
