I just instaled bigger injectors in my car before I had pta 780 and now i have pta 880, my global is 45 and deadtime 300 , on a cruise my wb gives me 14, 15 but when the car idles its too rich the wb give me 10. Before with my old injectors my idle was at 14 15 what would cause that to happen.
 
Here is a log on the highway,is it normal that I had to put my deadtime at 270 to have a normal idle air and gas mixture on my wideband.My injectors are pta 880,if I adjust the injectors deadtime at 450 the car runs way too rich at idle and on a cruise down the road.

Personally, I would first figure out what injectors I have. I've never heard of "pta 880s"; I have heard of PTE 880s. Second, I would put the dead time at the known dead time for the injectors. (Note that PTE 880s are 420, not 450.) Then drive until the LTFTs settle. Then use the 50Hz slider to fix the idle.

In other words: do what the manual tells me to do.

I'm weird that way.
