ok cause at WOT I see 11.1 on my LC1 and it holds there which is still rich. He probably just tuned me to be very safe and conservative. I did mention that I was nervous about WOT it. Last time I did it the engine went boom.
I'm boost leak testing this weekend and going to check for exhuast leaks.

Well some things have been discovered. Cracked header welds on the bottom side of the ports. Thats why i didn't notice any exhaust leaks. Hidden cracks.
Noone ever purchase the Tomioka header. I found about 5-6 leaks at the head and turbo. 650.00 manifold is garbage.
I just sent off my stock header to buschur for the port/coat with all new grimmspeed gaskets This time i'm going to use the copper RTV and seal this thing. I did a boost leak test and everything checked out there all the way to 30psi

Well I fail epic at boost leak testing. I didnt realize how slow the boost is suppose to fall and I found a major leak that i missed on my lower intercooler pipe and on the back of the throttle body where some allen key plug is?. It's starts to leak really bad at 24-25 psi.
Retune time ahead once all is fixed

I can put my finger right on the biss screw when i have 30lbs in the system i can directly feel and i can make the leak sound change with finger pressure. its definitely coming from that
