Big shot help
My setup is a progressive direct port jetted with boxed 40 jets with a stand alone with 116 octane, the motor is on 93 octane.
I have been running a direct port for years and have always had to spread my jets to get my AFR up. example my 300 shot i ran 32f and 36n and 6psi on the standalone when my motor tune was good.
Right now i have it boxed at 40 and am down to 4.5 psi on the fuel and even takin fuel from my motor tune and i just cant get the AFR to move off of 10.1.
I was thinking i would keep pulling fuel from my motor tune (injectors) untill i have my desired AFR, My thoughts on this is i would end up with more 116 octane than 93 witch should be a good thing. or should i just spread the jets? If I was to spread the jets i was thinking 40f 42n.
If anyone here has ran a direct port jetted at 400+ i would love to here about it.
I liked running my squared (40/40) and pulling from the low pressure side like you are doing. Have you been checking your plugs to make sure it matches what your w/b says?
If that's a match, then I would go a 42 jet, up the low psi and start working back down again. Of course, I'd only start leaning it out with good fuel in the tank. I would leave the motor tune alone if it's dead on.

I will add 116 in the main tank as well to help keep it on the safe side if there is such a thing lol
You will only need to make a 330' hit and the kill the motor and coast out the back to get a read on what the tune is doing. After you get it dialed there then you can make some full passes and recheck.
One of my favorite passes was on a test hit with a 38 jet. Shut it down at the 1/8th and still ran a 10 second 1/4 mile.

During all the runs so far we have only brought the controller upto 50% of the 400.
I use 45 psi of fuel pressure so my fuel jet is less than 1/2 of yours so does that mean I would only have a 200 shot on it?
Just messin with ya.
The next time i run it a plan on a tune up like this
40/42 at 5.5 psi flowing pressure
#10 plug
12* of timming
25% of the shot ramp to 60% in 2.5 sec
Maybe this will get the AFR above 10.1
EDIT... This is Chevpower

You should just change jets if you are only wanting 50%. That's a lot of risk I would think pulsing the entire track.
I have about 20 passes where the front end was in the air when the power came in and it blew them off. I have been working with the car everyweek and so far 25% ramp in about 2.0 sec seems to be the only way to get it down the track.
We have ran at BMP, OSW and LMP allthree tracks same results. I am thinking or hoping that its just a hot track and radial thing and cooler weather will fix this lol
