Ok Im wondering will it be ok to drive my car on like 7-8psi with no fuel management for a couple weeks or no?
I will have a wideband hooked up to read that.
The thing is I have smt6 and duel rail and cant get them hooked up till couple weeks and need my car for now.

Eh hes not giving you the full story, hes running a tigerlilly 8.5:1 decompressed engine, and we know you can run 5 psi unfuel tuned (I did it for a year with a wideband) and the ecu still maintains a 14:1 ratio and the car pulls fine, this is on a nondecompressed engine. some of you may be thinking that the proper fuel ratio for a turbo engine is 12:1 but for such low boost theres no need to run real rich.
For him, since hes decompressed 7 would be fine too.
