Now that I'm seeing the air path, even though the AFM/mixture is factory shouldn't this run rich since it'll be reading % more air...or is the idea to just jam air in at the same ratio to fuel igniting more in the same stroke? I thought the idea of a turbo actually made it lean inside the cylinder and provided cleaner burn by more Oxygen...is that off?
