New to the platform.....need help.

Hey guys I'm new to the evo community. I have a 2012 evo x. My current mod list is:
ETS Intercooler and piping
Cobb bpv
Grimmspeed 3 port
Turbo Xs turbo back exhaust
Cobb tune
I am running a tune called schrack 2+. I also have a map for a V3 93 2+ tune. I guess my question is if this is the right tune for this set up. Anything I have read says I should be running a stage 3. Sorry if any of this sounds stupid. I am coming from a genesis coupe and bought my evo with these mods. Unfortunately I know absolutely nothing about the platform. Any help is appreciated.

I can help you out with Tuning
please don't run tunes that aren't made for your parts!

Good start for the mods A pro tune will always be the best tune for your set of mods. Even if a different car with the exact same parts will have a slightly different tune. In my opinion it's better to just get a pro tune and know everything is in check.

I wouldn't say everything, sometimes pro tuners can f things up. They are human and make mistakes, but yes pro tune for sure! I am still in need of a pro tune myself.

Please don't encourage people to break rules; this is a tech forum, not a vendor forum. With that said, Baka should use PMs more and posts less, IMO as a mod.

I would be interested to see what maps you have. I just don't think the one I'm running is correct.

Killer if you consider yourself to be a semi intelligent person I would suggest learning how to tune yourself. It can seem daunting at first but it really isn't all the difficult. Plus I have found there are more than enough forum members who are willing to help. It's all a matter of whether or not you want to put the time in..... But in the long run I believe owning an evo will be that much more rewarding when you know how things work. Good luck my man!
