Yup, but it's offline because I can't justify the (likely bad) NOx :

Even with it off I've already drifted into bad NOx :

... If you want to go lean, get a wideband with an analog 0-5v output.

If you're trying to reduce NOX, go with water injection. AFAIK, it's 50 state legal. I use it on two of my vehicles for performance reasons, but it's function is the same, to keep combustion temperatures down. I'm pushing 19 PSI on a 9.25:1 motor with 87 octane fuel. I'd say it works.

Pick up a shurflo agricultural pump, a brass M1 nozzle from McMaster Carr and the rest you should be able to pick up locally. I'm using an M5 on my Saab, but it only runs under tire shredding power levels.
I'll research it. I do know that my co-worker had a water-injection system on his 1980's carbed truck. I *want* to say it was an Edelbrock, but I can't remember. When he took it for smogging in the 1980's, the tester said it was the cleanest vehicle he had ever seen.
