Its all in the fuel tank design. People change out their fuel tank but if you tune for performance at half tank then youll be fine, it will be a bit rich at full tank but as the tank progresses it will slowly kick in. I changed my fuel tank and installed an os 18 cv-rx and never looked back, And due to the smaller fuel tank i can run more lean to compensate for lesser runtimes.
