3:1 or 4:1 FMU question

Right now my car is tuned at about 11.2:1 This is with my 4:1 FMU and my SAFCII pulling any where from 25% to 45% across the RPM range (US manifold) So my question is do you guys think I should drop down to a 3:1 FMU disc in order to not run out of tuning 'room' with the AFC? Or would it even make that much of a difference....The reason i ask is because I would like to lean out a little more ~12.2:1, but I think I am about to run out of adjustment with my SAFCII. Thanks for any advice.

Drop in a $50 J30 MAF?

What kind of fuel pressure are you seeing at WOT under boost?

J30(Z32) MAF, put fuel pressure back to stock, and toss the FMU.

StephenMax had 370cc+A32ECU+Z32 MAF for a little while and Bags is running his turbo with the same. Both used the SAFC to add some fuel in places, but not too much.

I'd use your AFPR and bump up the base fuel pressure until your SAFC settings were subtracting fuel instead.
