What do you mean, exactly? The factory reality or what would be optimal?
The former is anywhere from 15:1 down to 11:1 under load.
The latter would be 14.7:1 at cruise and 13.5:1 under load.
Oops! Sorry! I didn't mean to answer that! I meant to post this (gotta be consistent):

Hey now, I'm not a newb and I did search. But I got a gazillion threads with millions of pages and the titles had no indication that they contained the information I need. Now that I made this thread, someone else can come along and search "NA" and "AFR" and find exactly what they need.
Thank you very much.

sometimes my car feels like the AFR is 1:1, the tack goes up as fast at the gas drops....lol
That said, I hooked the car up to a wide band (with the old motor) and noticed about 13.2-13.5 at cruise (steady light throtle, 72mph on the hwy, lvl ground, 85* amb temp) and anywhere from 10.8-12.8 durring WOT on the same road (depending on gears, the higher gears gave a richer AFR
hope that helps.

Mine typically sits at 14.4:1 at 4000 RPM cruise for 7 seconds after which it abruptly switches to 13:1, gradually slipping down to 12.7:1. Letting off the throttle for even a split second puts the mix back to 14.5:1 or so.
That is the CAT protection scheme.
Obviously, my WOT numbers are useless to this discussion.

KYliquid- thats weird
Jeff- why is yours slipping to even 12:1 at cruising? because of the TC? i havent seen mine do that while cruising. hmm maybe i should log a couple runs and take a closer look
