is your email something like "blackvtec" or something?

If so I think we alredy addressed the issue. You need to set your base correction for injection to 100%, not 60%, if you're using 370CC inj.

UPDATE!
so we got the car to idle good on 80% inj duty and drive pretty decent, i believe that i have a vac leak because of a bad wastegate, i ordered a new one just now, we pulled the plugs which are hks iridiums, they look ok but they may be gapped a bit high two were 30 and two were 32 thousands, i am going to put new ngk bkr7e's in it gapped at 28 thous or lower as i beleive i am blowing spark out after 4500 rpm, that was with anything over 15 psi, i lovered it to 12-13 and it was much better but not perfect, a/f numbers were a little rich under full boost at about 10.5-10.9 but still tweaking.

i am using the pfc boost control kit which seems to be working wonderfully.

timing from steves map seems to be good

still a little worried about the breaking up after 4500 rpms , i am hoping that new plugs gapped down will clear that up. then i may just have to modify the fuel map to keep it idling on 80% duty but lean it out to low 11 a/f under full boost?

comments and suggestions greatly appreciated

I think it's best if you address this directly with me over email

I think I can probably help you the most - send me these updates directly to me via email or PM, because I can't constantly be checking this thread.

I think you have an issue with the injectors themselves. If they are true 550CC injectors than you should not have to skew them only 80% correction, they would need AT LEAST 60% skew off the base PFC setup.

I have also sent you a few more maps to try out FREE of charge. Save the ones I already sent but try these out as well. I still think I would buy some denso or Nismo High Impedence injectors that you know for a fact are the correct fit for the car.

cheers
