im not purposly running it rich im still in break in process. Trust me once i find that tune i like its stayin and the tune i had for the track i ran was perfect lol it was a lil track so it did perfect. Once i get out to my lhs im tunning it in to where it needs to run for a big and fast track. Im just trying to find longevity to, i would much rather pay 30 for a rod then 100 for a whole p/s/r kit lol.
