what is the AFR meant to generally be at? since i dont have any AFR gauges or readings at the moment I might take my car to a dyno and get them to do a AFR reading for me aswell....if your car is at 18AFR and not hesitating like mine I dont even want to imagine what my figures are...but its wierd because like I said I bought the custom tune from InMotion so yeah I wouldn't be getting as much fuel as I should but Im sure they added a good amount of fuel for the pulley and intake so i didnt think it would be this bad.

Doc on a side note is L.A expensive to live in compared to other cities in the states? my fiance' and I have been there twice in the last 4 months and we were like Oh My God how cheap is everything here lol...price for gas in L.A is around $3 per gallon in Australia its around $4.50...not to mention everything else is cheaper in L.A then Australia cloths, food, etc etc
actually my issue was traction!! broke traction in 3 gears. what you are looking for is afr's in the high 11 to mid 12 range at wot. in retrospect i most likely doubled the amount of air going into the engine from my modded stock setup. add the density of 46* air and there you go massive lean runs. i thought my tune would handle it easily but dataloggs dont lie. as mine is a toy its parked until jerry sends me the cables to retune. maybe you might consider removing the manis until you get a setup to log then send the data to rob for his input

btw gas in my town is 2.59$ a gal
