My lean burn is not a hole in the map but a full time always on lean burn, from startup at 0 to 4500 rpm and all vacuum till about ten psi boost, i have to start the car in normal stock mode than once warmed up i can switch to leanburn, if i try to turn on leanburn before its warmed up it does not drive very nice and misfires.
Thanks for your post very cool stuff
I might have to try a plasma system in the future?

On my lean burn fuel map its has a hole around freeway speed and light load up to 2psi its around 25:1. At 3psi medium load it runs around 18:1 for power to go over our local passes. At 5 to 10psi its runs at 16:1. Then any where above this it adds fuel up to 30psi. I'm at 10.8:1 at 30psi for max power.

The HHO is where I was going with my idea to test N2O If it works the way I think it is going to I will be looking into HHO on board production.

The waste solvent testing has shown some great results for increasing flame speed. The only problem is some discrepancy in waste solvent batches.

Now its time for another update.
I lost my in stock in-tank pump this weekend. My first thought was the solvent killed the plastic screen and or the plastic pump disk. After doing some postmortem examination of the pump the plastic parts were in perfect condition. What I found was a worn out commutator and brushes. So now I can put the race pump back in and not worry so much.
