Re: true or false

They run rich? what does he mean? That's an odd thing to say. Any car can run rich. Sounds like he doesn't know what he's talking about to me. If you want one get one.

Re: true or false

A. Your friends an idiot
B. Stock they definetly don't but the gas mpg is bad
C. If you have a fuel management system you want to run rich especially if your boosting hard and high boost levels.

Does that answer your question...?

Since there is no 'All of the above' option. I'll go with (A) being the right answer.
