Sct strategy tuner suggestions?

[sketch911]

i have cold air intake, 4.10 gears, and full exhaust...was wondering if anybody had some good suggestions for all the settings in my tuner to make my car get the most horsepower. i have the SCT strategy tuner and you can adjust all the rpm numbers and even air to fuel ratio. should i go leaner or richer on air to fuel?

You go leaner till it melts something, then fix it and fatten it up..

Or you can get a good tuner who already knows where that combo needs to be.

i have it set at stock air to fuel ratio...but on the tuner i can put it richer or leaner...whats better?

would it be safe to put it a few notches to leaner without destroying anything?

thats normally what they do..one of the things that would help major is the timing curve vs rpm

Since youre in Westchester, call Turbo People. Job is the best on the planet. He doesn't tune cars full time anymore, so if he turns you down let me know.

this is kind of a stupid question but LEANER on the a/f ratio means less fuel or more fuel is being used>?

yea, and generally means more power too

Unless you know what your air fuels are right now, I definely wouldn't recommend pulling any fuel.

Have a pro tune your car b4 you blow it up.

Usually with a CAI on the '05 up it leans it out some anyways. I'd log your car now and see what you fuel trims are. I'd add a little timing and leave the fuel alone personally but the canned tunes do that anyway.
