Very nice.
Silly rich; if the intercooler can control KR you should get a fair bit more leaning it down to 12.5 or 13:1.
Peak torque may not go up but the curve will flatten out more giving more top end HP.

With some heads and a better flowing exhuast, those hp#'* will really be up there.

Actually the car likes it right there. We leaned it out to about 12.2 to 1 and lost quite a bit of power even with no KR and same timing.
