My Camaro used to self-lean itself at       high RPM and so you want to enrichen the air/fuel ratio there.              Surprisingly, the best performance is still at 14.7:1...which is       maintained by the CPU very well through out the RPM range.               TW> You alaso might be able to play with the spark advance.              Also a look-up chart. While you're in there, you can play with the       transmission hydraulic pressure that is regulated by the CPU for chirpy       tire shifts, etc. Change the shift points and the converter lockup RPM.               TW> Staying within the limiits of the Smog Regulations of        TW> course!! :-) :-)              Wouldn't have it any other way. 8^) What's nice about it is; if you take       it beyond the smog regulations and it runs like a stripped-ass ape, you       can save that program when it comes to smog check time and return it to       stock.
