If I am right about what you are talking about .........................I am not a tuner but thought that 10.5-11.0 was the norm but other things definetly come into play as well.

Might want to describe what you are referring to a whole lot more, just a bit vague not?

Thanks guys:

My car was tuned at 7lb at 9.5cr and is over powered in lower gears so I'm looking to knock down some of the power by lowering the boost down low and switch it back up once I get traction. I was worried that I would load up the motor too much if I was too rich, but I wanted to be able to get the power down enough to make a difference.
Anyway, I'm thinking 11afr should get me 5.5lb, since we have more ethenal in our gas now, and switching up to 11.6afr for 7lb and full power. Also, the 11afr will be a good safe reference for the 11.6afr which could jump over 12afr if the fuel ended up being bad.
Thanks again!
