AFR, tip-in and related q's

Hey Guys.

I'm running with a FAST and for the moment NA until I get things sorted out.

The car is running reasonably well in the mid - high range but I have some driveability issues.

1. In the FAST, it gives you the opportunity to "target " an AFR. What should I have there? I know that at IDLE the target is 14.7, and I know at WOT I'm looking for about 12.00 (with the blower). What AFR do I want at tip-in? What AFR do I want in 6th gear on the freeway at 1700 - 2000 rpms?

2. I sometimes get a tip-in 'burp', especially when the car is colder. Just as I tip in the throttle, the car will pause, sort of 'fart' through the intake and then off we go. It is most pronounced with a gentle tip-in as oppossed to a more aggressive stab at the gas. Is this a fuel or a timing issue? Is there a specific table that helps with this issue?

3. (possibly related to #2). When cruising around on the freeway, when I gently give a little gas, basically just taking up the 'slack' in the pedal, the throttle response is a little delayed. It seems to just hesitate for a moment before reacting to the gas. Again, timing, fuel or another table?

4. Decel popping. I get popping at lower revs and lower MAP quite badly. In fact sometimes just taking my foot of the gas slighthly while cruising will get a little too much burbeling. I have the bottom of the MAP richened up and that has helped a lot from what it was, but now on decel I'm about 11 - 12:1 and I think that is 'rich' enough. Before anyone asks, I had it real LEAN before and it popped like popcorn in a microwave.

Thanks
