is it not true that the leaner the AFRs, the higher the EGTs? If shiv can make just as much power at 10.5:1, compared to 11.5:1, then why tune at 11.5:1??

fwiw-most srt4 guys think that 12:1 is an ideal AFR.......I tend to disagree.
there is a tuner there in AZ who tunes evos & subarus at 12:1 but some of those cars have either blown up or went to another tuner & got a reflash to 11.5:1.

if he (shiv) can make @ power @ 10.5:1, that gives him the ability to add in more timing if he takes out a little fuel @ tunes for 11.5:1. just an observation. Shiv will tune the way believes is best. i'm sure on race gas he has a leaner tune than the dynograph above.

i agree with u on the srt-4 crowd, but it's a dodge. if it blows up, it's cheap to fix...
