In my dyno experience I've noticed that my A33B gets very picky whenever there are large fluctuations re: AFR. Also, I've seen, again only in my dynos where my car makes more power whenever it is closest to 14:1. This could be because of the indirect affect of AFR conditioning via MAF V alterations.

I’ve tuned anywhere from 12.5 – 14.0. And 14.0 seems to be the favored area for power production. But again in my case, whenever I go leaner, my timing gets bumped ever so slightly.

So in the end, forget what I said and do what makes most power for your particular set-up.
