dude honestly! it doesnt seem like you know that much about car tuning at all. Holding 20 psi to redline is BAD! i would recommend you not push it that much! With out meth you should be able to push it to 18lb without any worry. But you are still running lean...

Did you buy the car like this? If so i would be worried...

you should get a new tune!!!! yesterday!!!

yes, i dont know much about tuning. i did buy it like this and would like to correct it. 18lbs sounds good to me, dont really think ill notice any difference.
according to my afr im running rich usually 13.1-9:1 or anywhere below 14.7:1
only time i have any probs being lean is when im using cruise control, but, whenever i check my numbers everything checks out fine.

no. i have ecutech monitor, it has a setting for user control but says its not available on this ecu.

can anyone reccommend places to go with good reputations for tuning?
