No way that's an accurate a/f reading. Both of them are way off. Ron's looks ok if it was shifted about 3 points richer. If it was actually 14.7:1 at full boost he wouldn't have any sparkplugs or exhaust valves left. It could be that secstang03 is actually running about 8:1.

secstang03, I would pull a plug and check to see if it's running rich. If you've just been idling around town, the plugs will clean themselves somewhat. You may have to do a couple of full load pulls, then shut it off and check them.

I'd also find another place to dyno. If they let you leave with those a/f readings without even pulling a plug to check, they aint worth a crap. Something stinks; I think they're just running the dyno and can't tune. Either that, or they REALLY don't like you.

I agree.I was scared with the 12.0 range,and wouldn't even think of stepping on it with a/f numbers like that.I would be very careful.Even if they aren't "tuners" per say they should at least have an idea of what is disasterous and what is not.You need to get to a new shop that knows what they are doing.

I ran mine on a different dyno on Saturday.
I had differnt results.
414HP
482TQ.
A/F 14:1
Still dangerously high.

My new programs for my 4-way didn't work-out this round.
my A/F ratios were in the 16:1 range
Lost over 50HP, But torque remained the same.
My tuner didn't read a seperate email sent sent to him.
That particular email informed him that I upgraded from 80MM
to 90MM MAF sensor.
New #'s to come soon

It looks like you have a broken plug or the gap is wrong. That's the first place I would go.
