Stoich Tuning

[zanch]

I've heard about this type of tuning years ago. There was a group who were stoich tuned and was the talk in forums. I believe this was specialized by LF Tuning. Any comments on this method?

Stoich tuning merely means tuning your car so that it neither runs lean or rich. How this is done, depends on your car... is it carburated or EFI?

It was made obsolete by the arrival of dyno tuning which is more precise.

is stoich tuning same as tuning with a fuel controller?

nope... even fully stock car will "benefit" from stoich tuning daw. Leave the car overnight LF and he will do his magic by the next day.

stoichiometric ratio is tuned by a car module itself based in engine size and displacements and depend on manufacturer program but normally 14:1 air fuel ratio.in reality stoich tuning is similar to tune up in terms of service.but their stoich tuning is different,they going to install or add something to get better gas mileage,yes its a little advantage for the vehicles owner but a big disadvantges for the engine.no offense.

Does this mean we are adding stress to the engine if not properly tuned using the stoich method? From what i know "tope" would occur if the engine isn't "stoich tuned" well.
