12:1 in WOT on boost. Richer will rob power, leaner can cause detonation unless you have something to suppress it like Methanol.

I have been at around 14 - 14.5 at warm idle. It does get in the 12's at WOT. I don't have the meter on any more and the car is sitting in the garage. Bambi decided to go to the other side of the road right in front of me. To say the least the car is a mess and Bambi didn't make it. OnStar worked :(

Sorry to hear that Pete. Hope everything works out. At WOT, I'm at 11.

Oh this is just a pain in the a$$ that's all. Just a good reason to look at a 6th gen ?? Did that gauge come with the AFR sensor ?

Jim, if your reading 14.4 at warm idle that is normal.
