I'm asking because I have the AFM right in front of me. The other in my car is Factory sealed, and I don't want to open it.

Give a bit more fuel. I feel like my engine is a bit lean because of that autothority chip and Lindsey Boost enhancer.

autothority chips are known to be on the rich side

Look at the spring that helps the door "close" you want to "loosen" that spring but it will not add more fuel, it will just make the door open a lil sooner.... if you wanted to try and "adjust" the fueling you can do it at the DME, I think its like a 3 or 4MM Allen wrench and turn it 1 click "clockwise" should be 5% more fuel over the entire powerband....
If I am mistaken, someone will correct me Im sure of it.....
Good luck..

Ok....

Went to my mechanic instead. It was the best thing I could do.

1. Change my spark plugs... all tips where white. Car was running to lean
2. Added 3% more fuel at the dme
3. Did a test a yes (f**k), I've blown a gasket with that Lindsey Racing Boost Enhancer, I had to much boost.

What a day. What a day. Now I need to check my things if I do this year or wait next spring.
