Keep it set to lambda, that is what you actually want to see when datalogging and driving the car. A/F is pretty useless since the tune is written with lambda in mind.

Also variance in ethanol percentage from pump to pump will change the A/F the car displays via cluster gauges, but lambda will stay consistent since stoich is always 1λ. This is even more important when you start running flex fuel or e85 tunes.

But the conversion is only a calculation and it's easier to read AFR on the fly then a fraction.

Lambda is much easier to reach bc it is only 2 numbers that do not change regardless of how much ethanol is in the tank...if your WOT lambda is set for .83/.84 then it will show those numbers regardless of how much ethanol you are running at the time.

Maybe this will help with your initial question:

You are spoiled by that Accessport, lol.

That being said, reading lambda is much easier, especially if you go flex fuel/E85. It took me a few weeks of looking and doing the quick math to get back to readily reading lambda. Now it's cake, and no need to worry about E stoich points with the changing E%.

I did that too. I finally have figured out the range I want to be in, .795-.820. It gets easier, especially after using the gas scale then getting used to just reading the E-stoich scale. It gets easier, lol.
