Just a heads up for you would-be squirters out there...The Thorley headers have the oxygen sensor bung in one of the primaries. Which works fine for a Narrowband O2 sensor, however if you have an LC-1 or similar wideband, it wont. The LC-1 is wayyyy too fast to have it in one of primaries on the header. The O2 readings are all over the place like this, at least this has been my experience of narrowing down things. I have the stock narrowband on there now in place of the lc-1 til i weld a bung down by the collector. It doesn't jump around like the lc-1 did, but its a narrowband...soo. Although I think I am getting some midrange misses(around cruise) when I have lots of advance and low MAP. I think my plug gap is slightly too big(0.32,stock is .31) I'll narrow it down to like 0.30 and see if that helps.

Engine is running pretty good as far as megasquirt is considered. I had some low-midrange MAP issues because of my cam,so I had to richen things up in that area of the table. She gets 20mpg doing 60-65 on the freeway, which aint bad for a lifted yota on 33's with 5.29 gears. If I had 4.88 or 4.56's to turn the engine a little lower I know she could get 22-24 MPG on the freeway. I get awesome milage in city driving cuz of the decel and engine braking fuel cut with MS'nS-Extra.
