...and whether the ecu will adapt out the enrichment are not addressed.
Yes, the ECU would adapt and negate the enrichment, up to the system's inherent adaptation limits. It would do the same with fuel pressure hacks, or anything else where the ECU sees the mix at the 02 sensor as being anything other than stoichiometric. (obviously speaking of closed-loop mode here.) WOT enrichment is one thing, but "on the fly" tweaking during closed-loop operation has some inherent advantages, as Duxthe1 has discovered.

Those are the reasons why I'm so interested in Duxthe1's methodology. Same questions apply:
1.) are you planning to produce this?
2.) would you like to expand into a wider potential market?

I know that there would be PLENTY of interest from certain groups of enthusiasts that have LH cars!
