XS tuned PFC & now off to dyno...need advice

My car runs pretty well after XS tuned my PFC but I am pretty sure it is running too rich. How do I lean out my A/F mixture? Do I use the injector map or PIM volt modes to achieve this? Or am I way off here? I will have a wide band O2 hooked up while I do this. Any suggestions or procedures to follow would be appreciated. Dont want my motor to go booom!!!

thanks
Kelvin

Running Rich

Why do you think you are running too rich?

It's better to run a little rich than lean. At least you are shooting some huge flames. How much did XS charge you to tune the unit? If I were you I would leave the settings alone. Anyway, good luck on the dyno and post up your RWHP, I'm really curious to know how much hp your car is pulling.

XS charges $150.00 plus shipping for the reprogramming. Tristarx, I think I'm running too rich because of the excessive amounts of unburned fuel coming from my exhaust. I'll find out for sure when I take it to the dyno but I wanted to know how to take fuel out before I got there. Dyno time costs $$$$ Oh yeah, XS advises after their reprogramming you should "fine" tune your car on a dyno with a wide band O2.
