It's already been said but it does look a bit rich and it should have been pulled a little farther.

The dyno operator was probably just playing it safe for liability's sake. Probably a little too safe though. If you're not fully involved with what they're doing and seeking max effort and perfection, they're more likely going to get it to a point where it runs well and call it a day.

That was my experience, at least. I didn't have the time to spend with my tuner, so I just dropped it off after my longtube install for a dyno tune. I spoke with him a little when I picked the car up and from what I could tell from our conversation he made it "safe". Mine's a daily though, so I'm fine with safe. I just know it could probably use a little tweaking, especially on the low end where I feel it's a bit rich.

How does it drive? That is what matters the most and track times if you do that.
