Does anybody know if there are any major differences between the Profec-B and the Profec-B Spec II?

Default You're running a 14.5:1 A/F ratio at the torque peak?

Is that safe?

OIC. I took it as sarcasm, as in "Easy for Ebayer to take your money and run" =)

Default well....

we've discussed this a little bit already. I was obviously concerned when I saw this. But it seems the other DBW people are seeing the same. Even the VW folks in stage 3 land are seeing the same. At first I thought maybe my homemade race fuel caused some sniffer inacuracy, or possibly it was just the fast that it was a sniffer. But like I said, all the DBW stage 3 A/F's seem to be like mine.

Default I guess if it's not detonating and the EGTs are good, it should be OK...

I'd be curious if it's retarding timing in that region.

Default in this cold weather

I get 0 timing retard. I am running more agressive programing than the off the shelf stuff since I have the EBC. It has more timing across the board. I'd like to get my hands on Vtune and add some timing. I'd also like to see how timing looks when it gets warm again....and when I get the FMIC when it's warm.
