You bought Charles' car?
If so, the way that kit was tuned was to disable an O2 sensor and tune in limp mode, if I remember correctly.

I did buy it from him. It is a complete basket case, as he had it completely apart to prepare for installing the crate engine and his wide body kit.

I do believe that it was run in that manner, although with a retune it could easily be run with the O2 sensor in place. The included Innovate LC-1 Lamda Sensor Controller has an output mode which allows it to feed the ECM with a simulated signal to prevent the ECM from trimming out the additional fuel. Looking at its manual it appears to be easier to do so with it than with the output of a F/IC.

He never got around to installing it. He is actually looking for a home for it as well.

Isn't the flange on the manifold the same for both the gt25 and the 14B? Pardon my ignorance on this one.
