Default New injectors in, now I have rich idle and clicking sounds.

I'm not to worried about the clicking sounds; I heard somewhere that it's normal with bigger injectors, but I thought I'd ask.

However, I've suddenly gone to ~11/12:1 at idle according to my LC1. If I hit the gas at all, it shoots back up to where it should be. (Around 15:1). What could be causing this? I used the TunertstudioMS required fuel calculator and burned it into the MS before I started. Should I not have used the calc?

Injectors are RX7 460ccs.

The calculator gets you close but it's normal to still have to retune a bit.

Tune the idle cells.

Injector "clicking" is normal. Between injector and lifter tick on my car with an open hood it sounds like a time bomb. Which is probably is .

Richness is fixed, my warmup settings got fucked up so it was constantly running warmup mode.

Taping noise is, I guess, normal

Also: VE Analyze live is ******* ****.
