so i have a ct-engineering (new comptech) supercharger on my 07 FA5. hit the dyno today and the shop i was at got scared by the a/f ration and didn't want to do another run. a/f was 12.9 - 13.2 and unfortunatley there is no ems for these cars yet so im stuck with the hondata/ct reflash for now. is this way to lean? am i asking for problems? i have a pdf of the run before they pulled of at 7600, but i'm not sure how to post a pdf? help please.

That AF ratio depends on the power level. It would be fine at lower power levels and not OK at higher ones. Some 'tuners' really like super rich mixtures because they feel that it is safe, they are usually wrong. Regarding the PDF, there's no way to embed it on this forum. You'll have to either host it on a website and link to it, or convert it to an image file. If you can't convert it, just do a screen capture. If all of that sounds like jibberish, send me an email samhi.si@gmail.com and I'll do it for you
im having a wideband installed monday to see whats really up. if it is lean as well, im gonna get on the phone with hondata and find out whats wrong with my map.

Try and get that PDF up here so we can help you better. Was that AF only that high during higher RPM's or across the board? 12.9-13.2 is pretty lean for WOT on a boosted vehicle, but its not absolutely horrible. In my experience, most shops just like to tune very conservatively so that if anything breaks, it cant be blamed on them. Was the Hondata reflash that you have on the car now meant for the Comptech blower or is that just the normal reflash that is also used on N/A Si's?
so you guys really think it's fine? i have been hearing that it's way to lean to drive. i'm thinking about aem fic to gas it up a bit, but if im really ok then i'll just wait for a k-pro. i got a UEGO today and i'll hook it up some time this week to see where i'm really at. thanks for the help!
