I think this argument is basically "what comes first, the chicken or the egg?"

You are right the HP is made because the a/f is leaning out, but why is it leaning out? Well, because of the intake. That is one of the things a tune will do, lean out the a/f a little bit because stock is too rich. So again, which made the power, the a/f leaning out ok; but what leaned out the a/f ratio?? The intake. So if a=b and b=c, a=c

Anyone feel free to correct me. :happy0180:
