Its in the tune i have the same setup and after driveability tune no back fireing on deceleration! A lot of tunners overlook drivability to go for wide open throttle tune!
And permixing means putting two cycle oil in the gas and deleating the oil metering pump. I premix as i dont like dirty engine oil thats not meant to burn being put in my engine!

hey, thanx for the info guys. so if i get a driveability tune, am i going to lose a lot of performance or horsepower? what kind of tune is recommended ? i just want a fast street car with decent driveability and gas milage. are bigger or extra injectors recommended? can i just shut off the fuel upon deacceleration by tuning?

You called those characters tuners!
There's nothing wrong with that type of tuning. As long as you don't lift the throttle you're set for life!
