Humm, sorry about the delay. With the blackout here on Monday, they actually had work for me yesterday.

Very interesting differences. Interesting where they are similar.

I guess I should wonder exactly how it is working as well as it is. Maybe I got really lucky. I can't wait to do logs with your cal vs mine with the MAF.

I thought it was interesting that you run your boost at 100% (almost) all the time. I played with mine and asked some people about that in particular. Mitsubishi says 100%, but AEM says not to run it at more than 80%. So I asked some engine builders that build up turbos for racing and they said kind of the same thing. After a certain point the turbo doesn't really build more boost. But did not actually do testing. They thought that people might be using 100% of 80% but not 100% of 100%.

I will send you the cal, but for the most part it is pretty off the shelf, so I am not sure why people have drivablity issues. It is great at 91 octane, but will ping some if you really step on it with 87, but that is sort of expected without a good tune for the lower octane.

As a totally stock car it is a good test platform for some things too. I think it would be fun to run maps with a stock ECU to see what Mitsubishi was trying to do. I am sure they spent some big money on the original setup.
