I need to do a bit more research on the tuning but if you could tune the ECU to run a lean mixture from certain loads and speeds that would be good. Running lean-burn in high load situations and at high rpm is not very effective. You need to be at low load at a steady speed at low RPM. I wish there were some tuners on here to ask if it was possible to set something like this up with emanage ultimate which seems to be the easiest option.

Since my engine already has lean burn I just want to control when it happens with my own settings, not with the stock ECU. With the stock ECU if will kick you out with intake air temp changes, TPS going over a certain amount, etc. I would love to have a more free running system for when I am driving on the highway.
