Tunning question

I think tonight i'm gonna set the MAF translator to -20% across the board, i'm running around -15% to about -18% so i'll be able to run closer to 0 on the safc, but i'm pretty sure that's still gona give me the same results as setting the safc to -20.

And the reason i went with the 450's is i had to run e-85 on the 550's to prevent running around -30 to -40 to keep the AFR correct. I've almost wondered if they are larger than 550cc's but a run of the part number confirmed it twice now.

Yea, the SAFC and MAFT trick the factory ECU in exactly the same way, so it doesn't matter which you pull 20% out of.

E-85 keeps sounding better and better. Found out part of my problem, plugs gapped at .038-0.40 is giving me some MAJOR spark plug blow out. Got the knock under control, but the WOT is hard to keep happy with the blow out happening.

Got the new set of plugs, going back to the original wires that were on the car, new one's i'll hold till i need them for now.

Double posting over making another thread since it's in the same ball park, but i ran into some interesting issues tonight on the stealth. To lay out a quick run down:

Car stock injectors are 360cc, i have 450's on there.

I've switched back over to e-85 and can NOT get it running right. Last year on 550's i still had the settings around -20 all the way down the RPM range. This year trying it on 450's, I'm +20 just to keep it semi happy running at low throttle or cruising. It runs at idle around 14.9-15-5 at that point, but my high settings are -10% and when i get under WOT it goes to 9.9 and i hit fuel cut even as low as -25%. For the life of me, i didn't have the logger to check IDC but does this make ANY sense to anyone else? I'm about ready to drop the 550's back in cause i know they didn't have any issues really last year on it.
