Bill,

About where does this occur (APP) in your standard tunes and custom tunes. I am not an automotive engineer so have only a rudimentary understanding of all the values used and how it changes WOT. I guess what I'm asking is as a rule of thumb is it at 80%, 90%, 100% APP? etc.
As a rule of thumb, it's between 90%-94%.
