Put the larger jets in and big difference. Still haven't looked at the plugs yet. Did retune
the MAS adjustment and that worked much better now. I tuned it out rich and then back
in some so I know its a slightly richer mixture. Put my idle right at 750 or so.

The throttle seems to stick a bit and not fully return after its been used. I'll have to see
whats making it stick or bind. Makes my idle jump up to about 900 or so as I drive
around.

The secondaries kick in with a vengeance and little late maybe. I'll play with that some
more as well. When pushing the pedal you can feel a stop when you get to the
secondary activation and you have to push through it. No real hesitation just extra
effort to push down the pedal. Makes it really easy to stay out of the secondaries but
can be a bit jarring when you mash the pedal. Also a lot of fun!!

Can you tell I'm having fun with this finally?

I'll do a mileage run again and see how bad I've made it now. I'm pretty sure it won't be
30 mpg this time.
