question on increasing the WOT air/fuel ratio


you know the deal...sct xcal3... 93oct tune, playing with settings and wanting to get some input before i destroy my car, see that WOT fuel ratio can be changed to run 2% rich, 5% rich etc.

would running 2 or 5% rich improve power, acceleration? any negative side affects(not going WOT all the time, so it would not happen much).


do yall know if our cars run better with more fuel?

You shouldn't mess with the AF unless you have a wideband, or measured the current AF on a dyno.

dyno tuning at the only shop i know of near me is 300$
it is still cheaper than blowing the engine though...


so you dont know how the 4.0L's tend to run though?
