Running too rich on NXL- should I lean it out
Ok, NA I dynoed 415rwhp, but on the 180 shot I only gained 80hp. NX said they sent me the wrong jets (14's) , and I just received the correct jets (12's) today. At 10:1 that is rich, but I do not want to go too lean and pop my motor. But they "think" this is where the 100rwhp went.
what do you think? Could running to rich cause this much HP loss?
here is the link to install pics and the last one is my N20 dyno sheet

yes, that was with the 14's. NX said the size 12 jets will lean it out, but will I REALLY notice that much more power gain. I am just afraid to go too lean

to answer your queston, YES. the richer you run the motor the more power you will lose. also on the same note, if you run a motor too lean, you will also lose power. there is a window that you need to stay in to be safe and get the most power you can. i have heard of others having problems with that kit though so there might be something else to look at.
