I'm curious.  What ECUs are you running with, are they
designed (or at least adapted) for use on turbocharged
vehicles (I'm assuming you're turbocharging here,
yes?), and what happens if you don't "fake out" the
ECU?  I don't think there are any vehicles ever made
that operate in closed-loop mode while accelerating,
especially if the acceleration is more than a moderate
level (in my mind, that would be a great way to ruin
an engine very quickly, assuming you're talking about
a narrow-band O2 targeting stoichiometric).
