Learned a bit from this website http://www.bristoldyno.com/tech/airfuel.htm how lower AFR's are safer, but produce less power so I'm now starting to piece things together as to why some of the different tuning options give different power! Feels cool to learn this new stuff!
You are right. It is noticeable that probably all respected flash tuner (Dinan, Evotech/Noelle, ESS) are running richer than the piggyback tuner. Especially the tuner with an European backround (who have done long-term high-speed testing on the Autobahn, Nuerburgring-Nordschleife etc) pass on some hp and run al little bit more rich. There will be a reason for that...
