So I have been playing with adding resistance to the cht to bump my mixture. Messing with the mps was not getting me to where I wanted to be I wanted something a little more global. Anyway, bought a 10 dollar Bluetooth relay. Set it up so one channel was clean the other had 50ohms resistance in it. As I am driving I can switch back and forth and watch the results on the cht and AFR. 50 is really working well (this is all in addition to my 250ohm found on 73s). Now I have added another 20 ohms to the alternate so the relay will switch between 50 and 70. It ain't pretty but it's only for troubleshooting.
