Every single Bosch system I've deal with does. Even my mechanical KeJet does in its electronic piggy back. It simply adds or subtracts fuel pressure based on the lamda sensor switch point the last few times times the ignition was turned on. Simple but effective. Maybe this wasn't a popular feature on GM cars. They were very fond of TBI for a long long time so I wouldn't be surprised.

I'm using a bosch LSU and 14point7.com wide band controller/data logger. Megasquirt should be ready to install in a couple of weeks.
