Because these cars love turbos. Especially with corn fuel. Just because you like the 86 as a platform doesn't mean you have to like going slow all the time.

This is very true. it's dead nuts 18-20% (average maybe 18.5%) lower than a normal dynojet. i didn't believe it until i saw several cars confirm it. craziness... but it's a hell of a tuning tool.

The map sensor is used during cranking. As far as the load comp, I wouldn't recommend messing with it. You shouldn't have to to achieve minimal fueling error across the board.
