I guess that's why it runs hot, I threw an appropriate amount more of timing in on my modified tune thinking PE would supply the fuel. I have an EGT gauge for certain reasons and if I pull hard WOT for 10-20 seconds it hits 1500° easily.

yep!

less fuel, less timing. no much power.

retune it without the delays and lean out the PE mode some. Ive never fooled with a 8.1 but you would prolly be happy around 12.5afr above 3000rpms.

I run mine with the timer set to 0, a 160 t-stat and no tm, made a huge difference

12.5 sounds about right. I just dicked around one day adjusting stoic to random amounts and 12.7 ran like a champ, but seemed like I might as well hire a midget to sit under the hood and dump 5 gallon buckets of golden laced fuel down the Throttle Body hahahahaha. Normal cruising sure didn't need all that fuel.

Yes!!!! Like I said, just messing around. I was trying to find optimal AFR but PE wouldn't engage. Just a shitty way of testing I guess
