Default Some issues with current tune. Read inside.

As you can see in the dyno sheet attatched, the car is pretty lean. Had some other stuff checked out also, from 3-6500 basically all of WOT the car is detonating and running 14.0. I recently told my tuner to lean it up some more since I thought it was rich, guess that was stupid. I'm going to get a dyno tune to get this fixed but my question is after a dyno tune getting this fixed what should my power be around to begin with? What should my A/F be at during wot, I know 14.0 is lean, is 12.5-12.8 a good area to be in?

Is it not reasonable for me to expect a 400rwhp mark with my mods tuned right? I think that should be relatively easy to achieve.

I might get it dyno tuned as is now before I decide what im going to do. If a dyno tune brings me over 400rwhp the way it is then theres really no need to change heads I guess

Your AFR is too lean in the graph. Once you tune it up, you might get some good numbers. A safe AFR and one for making good power is in the 12.7-12.8 range. You can gain a little power leaning, but in my opinion is not worth the problems.
