I ought to try varrying the orifice size...maybe I'll measure it tomarrow and see what size of hole it is now....

Still wishing I had a nice widband O2 sensor. Either I save up for that or some nice light weight wheels and LRR tires. Life is tough when you gotta decide on data acuisition or a few percent better mpg...it's one of those, "if I only had the money moments". So I'm willing to just let it go and save up for those wheel and tires.

I doubt there would be much performance gain from this mod in WOT. From what I understand, the ZX2 pcm puts it at 12.2:1 but ideal is around 13.5:1, so it would be difficult to hit that without some tuning software, and with that software it would be easier to just program it.
