some alda observations and questions...

i was playing with the alda today after lubing the screw on top for like 2 days and i turned it up all the way until the screw was locked all the way counter clockwise and i noticed all it did was blow out more smoke but didnt increase low end power any more than it did where i had it set before.. i had it set to where the car just gave out a little fart of black smoke and anything passed that i would guess would just hurt overall around town fuel mileage... am i right about this?

also when would it be appropriate to turn the screw all the way out or even take the alda off? when adding a vnt? after turning up the full load screw on IP? im just trying to find out as much abt the 617 before i modify it with as much money i can afford to throw into it.
