Plugs / AFR / Weather
Ok I'm kind of at a loss here. Wouldn't colder plugs cause the car to run more rich? I put in some hotter plugs (BPR7ES) and my AFR's are way rich now. I'm not sure if this is because of hot weather or what..
I'll elaborate more when I get home.. My gf's keyboard feels like a 1920's typewriter and the spacebar barely works

Yes exactly.. I was running the colder plugs now I'm back to stock heat range. The car feels really smooth now but I was running around 11.1AFR and now I'm down to 10.8.
It could be weather tho.. It's been getting real damn hot then cooling down.
Would plug gap have any effect on the AFR?
I realize these are stupid questions but I'll never know if I don't ask

I have the mail in dynoflash and SAFC-II. Right now my safc settings a just like -1 and -2. I think my main problem is the only time I log is at night.. It's fairy cool but humid.. then daytime is hot & humid.
plug doesn't effect the afr, it might effect how efficient the air/fuel mixture ignites.
temperature does effect boost, coolant temp, air volume, etc... which could cause your afr to run a little richer or little lean.
your gf probably spilled some coke on her keyboard.

300+whp running that rich is pretty impressive w/o cams.
