Tip #1, put some 93 octane gas in there (run at least 3/4 tank through), then select 93 octane in SF and add 2.0° to the Global Spark Adder, and 0.5°, 1.0°, and 1.5° to the low/mid/high spark modifier values.

Do NOT mess with fueling until you get a wideband O2 sensor.

If you live somewhere that is consistently HOT (90°F+)in the summer, install a 180°F thermostat. That will lop 20°+ off the coolant temperature and let you run 0.5° to 1.5° more advance.

Oh, did I mention "Do NOT mess with fueling until you get a wideband O2 sensor."

91 octane max in California FTL. Would you still suggest adding any amount of spark? I'm already pretty hesitant to mess with A/F until I get a wideband, so i'm definately gonna leave that alone for now. Where can I find a good 180 degree thermostat?
