I use 155lb BBK fuel bump, 6.0L fuel rail and stock injector for ls1 I think its 26lb.
As I said I will tight the return fuel line to increase the pressure because may be the return fuel line is big.

I know what a speed density tune is, I'm running one. I just didn't understand what you were trying to relate it to. As JonCR96Z has already said, it has nothing to do with open/closed loop.

You're telling me to search??? 
I didn't say it would make it run slightly rich or lean, I said it doesn't affect the open/closed loop operation.... do a search

Is it plausible that something like that would have an effect on AFR? Maybe, but it would be such a tiny amount that on one would ever know and even then it would be corrected by the O2s once the system went into closed loop at 122 degrees ECT.

Those threads say nothing about running rich. 99% of the people who run 160 thermostats wouldn't know if they were rich or lean.

Yeah your probably right, but what i was saying is that my tuner can notice it on a laptop hooked up to HPtuners.

Ok.
I assumed by that post that the part in bold was stated by your tuner, either way, it is completely false. That's all I was trying to say, sorry if I lost you.

From what i understand the thermostat will open up at 160. Its not gonna close back till the pcm reaches the original setting of 195. Thats why the temp gauge will still read 200 even though its not.

the BCM has nothing to do with the ECM comanding open/closed loop.
The thermo will open when the car hits 160 degrees. the car will run cooler than normal becuase coolant is circulating faster/more frequently through the Rad keeping the motor cooler. The reason the temp reads 200 on the dash cluster is because on 99+ motors its just an idiot gauge. HPTuners will show the correct temp the ecm is seeing though.
