EXACTLY!!!!!! EGT's are just a reference point and NO two vehicles or Combo's will be the same. Tune for max Performance and see where the EGT's are.
I was a Diehard EGT man, gave the O2 a shot and love it! The EGT will read different from header to header and the O2 stays the same.
5/1 AFR is still on the fat side. FWIW mine likes 5.6/1 on Motor and 5.9/1 when i spray it. When I spray I enrich with Race Gas though.
Your best tool of all is you Plugs, reading them will tell you exactly where your at.
