I would love to learn something while I'm there! but I hate when people sit and look over my shoulder when I'm working on their cars at work lol. So I usually just stay out of shanes way and let him do his thing unless he needs me to do something.

Watch out for the liter bikes there can be a 10-20mph trap difference!
Thanks! I'm not too concerned with whether I win or lose. If I can hang with them I'll be happy. If I lose I lose

If fuel pressure drops bad though, then no amount of adding fuel to the maps will make a difference. You could wire a fuel pressure sensor into the AEM also and have it adjust the fuel for small fuel pressure drops. Some factory ECUs actually do this. Some cars with factory fuel tanks and poor venting can go lean in the higher gears on a long run due to the fuel pressure dropping because vacuum builds up in the fuel tank and then the often already close to maxed fuel pump has to work a lot harder.
As for the wideband being wired in to the aem it supposedly already is. But I'm still waiting to get my new laptop. I'm not sure I trust the old fjo in the car anyway. I want to verify it's readings match up with what your dyno reads. If it does I will make sure to get it properly wired into the aem. If it doesn't then it will be replace and I will get the new one wired in properly.

I have been looking into fuel pressure gauges with a 5v reference and it seems that aem is the only one that makes one. so that is one of those is on my top priority of things to buy for the car.
