A/F at WOT?

My scan data (Moates) shows the A/F at 11.73 as soon as TPS goes above ~65%, and the injector pulse ~9.5-10.5. I know it looks like the injector is going static and thus the loss of performance I'm feeling at WOT vs. 3/4. My question...is the 11.73 a referenced value in the chip when going into PE? If so, if it was say 12.5, maybe my injector pulse would be more like 8-9ms. With my mods I can see the need for 24# injectors, but I'm planning on doing those with a SuperRam in ~6 months. What I'm planning to do before that is getting set up to burn my own prom. It would be nice to think I could enhance my WOT performance with my current set up. By the way, I'm running a crap JET chip...good news is, sounds like the JET module will make it easier on me when I start burning.

I doubt your injectors are going static at only 9-10 msec unless you're still hitting 10 msec at 6000 rpm. You're feeling a loss in performance because it's too rich. Yes, leaning it out with a higher A/F ratio would reduce your injector pulsewidths some. You'll love being able to change a ton of things (especially the part-throttle stuff) burning your own chips.
