I have GamiJectors, wing root fairings, gap seals installed already.
a week ago I had new avionics installed. garmin 430, audio panel, garmin
x-ponder and some other stuff. Wanted the MX20 but that will have to wait
another 6 months.

The gamiJectors say you can run lean of peak, but when I tried it, I

seemed to
lose some airspeed, so I lean to 12 gph which is just a tiny bit ROP,

thats
seems to be the best mixture setting for me.

You should be leaning to 50 LOP. Your CHT's will be lower and you fuel flow
will be lower as well...AIA, easier on the engine.

Read John Deakins series on leaning and engine operations on AvWeb...you'll
be quite surprised. http://www.avweb.com/news/columns/182146-1.html
