How clever of you! Throw out the fuel and other conditions, then say
"YMMV". Sure. Very tutorial! :) Actually I suspected you were trying to
"max me out". But I DO appreciate that boost conditions affect the "rule
of thumb" on afr considerably. What I should have done was limit boost to
+2atm at most, and racing gasoline, and then ask the question.

I guess. Who knows.

Sure. Remember that when someone asks a broad question like I did, they
can either be seeking a stupid "golden answer" "always true for them", OR
they are looking to understand the parameters of an admittedly complex
situation. Try to err on the side of sympathy, when answering such a
question; the idiots will mislead and likely kill themselves with *or*
without you help. :)  I assumed you focus would be on those trying to
learn something.

Appreciate the feedback and willingness to communicate.

Brian
