There are times when we want our car to not run the stoich AFR. This would be when we are trying to
make a lot of power by compressing the air/fuel mixture as much as possible before the spark plug
ignites it. So what AFR should we run? A 12:1 AFR is good for power, but dangerous to the engine. It
would be good for an aggressive tune on a car that you won't mind if the engine goes. The more reliable
AFRs of 10.5:1 to 11:1 for a TMIC and 11:1 to 11.5:1 for an fmic are usually used on a daily driver.
