Ahh. But with FI, you just get less power with less air there is less gas but in the same proportion. Right Jim? Keith I'm sure Keith knows, but everyone should bear in mind that as you rise in elevation the engine runs leaner (less oxygen), so the run up the Rockies can be especially hard on the engine in combination with daytime heat (road surface temps are particularly high) and low humidity (less cooling effect). Retuning for altitude when you reach about 3,000 feet is not dumb. Western Utah and Nevada will be very hot that time of year, by any reasonable standard.
