an AFC wont help you richen at all.
Your best bet is an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.

The V-AFC unit has a progressive mapping system between what you set as low-throttle air-fuel ratio and high-throttle air-fuel ratio. By default, low-throttle is set at 10% throttle, high at 50%. So you can essentially have two settings for the car, one for around town driving, the other for lead-footing it... That should get you started... it's a pretty powerful and useful tool... I recommend having it tuned on a dyno so that you maximize your power and efficiency by adjusting your air-fuel ratio to stay within the bounds of the ideal air-fuel ratio for the ideal cylinder temperature upon detonation...

In virginia Beach va there is a chasis dyno at Abucus Racing. 100 per hour and the guy chuck that runs the dyno can help you get it right.
