Pgfpro, tell him how to convert to lean burn! Ah, dang, the Hydro Kid could do it, but where is he?
I would like to see him do some light load and mid load lean burn dyno testing?
Record TB position, MAP and of course the A/F ratio.

I would love to compare my lean burn road data with his results?

What I found that still puzzles me is on all my NA engines I could only get the engine to run so lean before a miss-fire? On my turbo engines I could run a lot leaner without any miss-fires.

I'M hoping a good friend purchases a Dyno Dynamics load type chassis dyno this next year. If everything goes to plan I will do some light load
ultra-lean burn testing with a exhaust analyzer to see NOx my levels?
