Mellon I am not asking you to give up any secrets but I am going off of a cam theory I found online can I pm you my map and tell me what you think you dont have to tell me how to tune lol just what you think. And i have a few questions about the whole process of sending in my ecu to have it tuned.
Your best bet would probably be to go with Mellon. If you plan on continuing with the self tune plan then you should get a loggable wideband and post some datalogs. 3 logs, WOT from 2500-redline with the relevant info collected. rpm, tps, timing, wideband, etc. And of course a list of your mods, boost level, and fuel type.
I'm not used to tuning on 91 octane but those timing maps could use some work. There is a thread with some fully tuned timing maps that you can look at for reference, make sure your looking at 91 octane timing maps.

thanks for the votes of confidence in Mellon Tuning guys, I appreciate it and promise he'll come away with a much better understanding of tuning and EVO when we're done tuning as I'm quite verbose about what I'm changing

Ok sounds good to me Mellon I just got done reading a lot off your website once my wideband is fixed and and I have some extra money I will probably plan on sending you an email and getting package B I believe it is thanks for the help again lol now i dont feel like i am at such a loss
BTW once more question why start your third gear logs from 2500 I have always started at 1500 would 2500 be better?? Oh and one last thing Mellon rules!

Ok well if that still fine then. Hey Mellon whats the most that you have seen on an evo ix running my mods with 91 octane not that of course i would expect that just curious to see what the most was I have AEM intake and Buschur exhaust and O2 housing and then small things such as a torque damper then ground cables lol. The exhaust does have a high flow cat on it if you were wondering to

Here is the new map that after doing a few pulls and little bit of looking around at some other maps with similair mods that i have came up with so far no big problems with know seen slight knock at top but its better than what it was its a working progress but you were right spike that map was not much different from stock mostly just tuned at 220 240 range. I never hit above 265 load for the most part and thats not till 3500 should I still tune that mid rpm high load area?? If I cant figure it out then yes mellon it is
