Evo enthusiasts generally recommend against using canned maps, their out there, but getting a map from a reputable tuner, or even a custom tune is your best bet.

search for ECUFlash, or Reflashing.. There's THOUSANDS of threads on these topics.

Yes, they exist. However, it will not be the best tune for your car as MJ stated. It may even be bad for your car if the author got a little carried away.

If you choose to take this route, you will honestly be taking a chance that could destroy your engine. I'm not saying that because I want your business or anything. I'm telling you because it's a big risk. At the very least, read around the forum here and familiarize yourself with tuning before loading one of these maps.
