80%

Like almost steping onto it? Wouldn't the engine just inject more fuel making it run rich? It sound so counter intuitive. 80% would make me run like rabit at red light. Or is this 80% something else which is not linearly related to throttle position?

Since my commute is so short, is it benefitial to do that if the car is open loop?
