Lambda Bank 1 and 2 question

I've always been confuse with these numbers on the MHD gauge we have Lambda Bank 1 and 2 AFR

I'm currently on custom tune with wedge performance e50 map

The lower the number, the richer the mix. 14.7 is stoich, but you don't want to be there when you're WOT (only while cruising and idling). You want to be richer. My e50 tune targets 12.45 at maximum load in the upper RPM range and around 13 in the midrange. Some ethanol tunes are a little richer than this. A 93 octane tune is going to be richer than this for sure. You want both banks to mirror each other pretty closely.

+1.

My V7.1 Stage 1+ 93 car is typically 11.9 at WOT, some may see low 12s or high 11s though, either is normal.
