It's looking to me that the WI is only going to be effective when the ambient temp climbs and the charge temp gets close to the 70 deg C, after which the mapping chucks in extra fuel as a fail safe (I assumed you knew this trigger point, but never reached it?).
Not given up yet, but I don't want to trim the map to remove fuel for obvious reasons, I have rebuilt a C-LET once because of detonation and I don't fancy a Z-LET based reincarnation!

Could you tell me how it failed? If you cab take a picture, it wil be much better.
