That's a tad chubby. Back off the PE setting
a percent at a time until you get to maybe
890mV (which is still rich, but safe) or
start to pick up KR. If you get down to
890-900mV and still have no KR then you
can push timing up.

i have mine running good at about 890-900 mV but its not real accurate thats the problem. i would mess with it to get it to hover around 900mV and if u have no KR then check WOT spark, u can get that up to about 30 or so. mine is about 30.4* and my o2's are 905 and it feels great. what are your ltrims at part throttle?

930 mv might be 13.0:1 ratio! (it is in my car) You don't want to lean it out in that case. Or 890 mv might be 13:1, or that might be 12.7. The only thing that is certain is 450 mv is 14.7. See what I mean? Your O2's are not accurate for PE adjustment. IMO, don't mess with it until you get a wideband on there.
