    Forester tune

    Should be getting temp plates on Monday so I can start breaking in the motor but I'm wondering if I may be a little too lean . May need you to touch it up before I drive it a lot . What should I be seeing just driving around with no boost? I seem to be in the 14.0-15.5 area most of the time .

    Took a video tonight

      Yeah not having experience with subaru-specific motors, but my experience has been that if you're staying out of boost then 14.7:1 is perfectly fine. Also been my experience that when you lift off the throttle it'll go fully lean "--" as the injectors shut off to save fuel and the weight of the car essentially diesels the car. Nothing to worry about.

        You're fine, S(ea,au,aw)n.

        Just stay off boost, and there's nothing wrong with a car with no load going as lean as 16:1 for a short time.

        I can appreciate your nervousness, but there's no real "tuning" around closed loop.
