I have a major problem with this. You quote my post and reply with this, but your arguing against a statement I never made.
I never said afrs dont have anything to do with it, its just more aproperate to look at lambida when dealing with e85. And untill you understand this statement you have no business tuning anything, let alone an engine running e85.

Is 10:1 rich or lean? Well it depends if your talking about gas or e85. Most people wouldnt run a gas engine that rich at full boost. At the same time that would be a little lean for e85 to even idle allthough it can idle at that air fuel ratio.
14.7:1=1 lambida for gas and 9.67:1=1 lambida for e85
But it isnt aproprate to call the e85 mixture more rich because they are both stoich.
