Honestly a 16:1 ratio is good for something around idle. Even SR's with alot of mods like a rich idle mixture.
In most engines the car will shoot for a 14:1 ratio or so with the 02 sensor engaged at partial throttle. However, like I mentioned before these cars have tip in retard and fuel enrichment, meaning when you depress the accelerator the ECU sudden enrichen's the incoming charge and reduces timing, both of which smooth out as the car clicks into it's high map and ignores the 02. This is there for a reason, if it is not tuned as such into your parameters then you need to tune conservatively else you will run into full throttle studder and possibly detonation when you suddenly floor the throttle.
Tune for a solid 13.5:1 across the board at anything over 2500 rpm. Under that you can afford to use a 14.5:1 ratio.
