I'm not sure what "pop a smurf" means, but I think I have an idea.

I kid about the road racing. What I meant was if I wanted to, I would have smoked him

And I really don't get on the car all that much. As soon as I get my coils and wires replaced, I'll get MM's service and do this thing right. But I need to put a smaller WG spring in first...

 

i should have known not to trust what you say when i saw the face paint........ and good luck with the pipe bomb.. errrr.. uh... turbo kit

 

How is running rich such a horrible thing that everybody on here thinks my car is going to blow up?

 

/\ good point

 

I'm just not too sure they knew what they were doing. I hope it's only running rich.

 

Because detonation is just as likely to occur at 9.5:1 or so as it is with an over-lean condition.
Flame front speed drops dramatically below 11:1 and irregular combustion is very likely.

 

I did not know that. The lowest I've seen is 10.1. Usually it runs about 10.5 at WOT. I am going offshore in less than 2 weeks. When I get back, the first thing I'm doing is attending your real-time session to get this corrected. The service still includes 6 months of support from purchase date, right?

 

Are you reading from the factory wideband? I didn't think it read that low.

 

Oh hell no!! LOL, I have a PLX wideband.

BTW - your rims look sick. Are they the R3 wheels?

 

it seems like the shop didnt really know what they where doing... and just set it up to run rich as hell as a band-aid to bad tuning...

 

I kind of get that feeling too, but the car seems to run good, especially under WOT, but I'm wondering how much better it could run if I had somebody tune it that knew what they were doing. I going to have to wait until I get back from my offshore trip unfortunately.
