Thanks for doing this!!! I've learned a lot and have the confidence to tune my own car. Like you said the learning curve is big, but worth it.
I've set the boost limits on my 03 evo 8 the same increments as yours and it seems so puny compared to the evo 9. I've searched for others evo 8 boost limit settings and came up without any results. Is it safe to keep upping the boost limits until I see knock then back down a little?

if you're hitting boost cut, it'll feel like you're hitting a wall. If it's just tappering off, that's not it.
It's hard to change your boost curve with a MBC. That's why people use EBC's/ECU-based boost control. If you want 21lbs from peak boost all the way to redline, an MBC won't do it for you.

I have an AEM wideband installed on my car.
Is there a way I can get my wideband reading to go to my laptop, or do I just have to watch my wideband while I go WOT to see what I am holding.

Thank you!
I found a bunch of write ups on how to make the cable on here and other forums, but I have not found a place that actually sells the cable. I looked on AEMs site but didn't find it either.
Does anyone make one I can just buy?
