Would be really wary of that boost and afr's on 91. Not going to say anything negative bro, but thats just asking for trouble. PM razorlab or any of the really reputable cali tuners and they will tell you the same if you dont believe me. If you get a bad tank of 91, its not gonna be pretty. Just be careful bro, thats all. That is SUPER aggressive. Great numbers though for sure.
I hate sounding like I'm coming down on you guys sometimes so please dont take this the wrong way. I just have had friends that were tuned aggressive like that and blew their motors. Ive been around a LONG time and thats the reason why I started tuning my own car, I just didnt trust what other people were doing to friends cars (like Al for example). Any change in temperature from when those logs were sent to 4ws can trigger a ton of knock. Altitude change, like going to cali, will raise boost and potentially cause a ton of knock. Be sure if you are tuned that aggressive, you are constantly logging that car for your own wallets sake. Summer could hit, and the temps go way up, and you could be looking at serious problems. Not trying to harp on you bro, just stressing to be very careful. I know you have a cable if you went through 4ws, so definitely keep your eye on that!
Yes, I do tunes. Im not saying you should have let me do your tune or anything, just throwing that out there hehe. I really dont advertise anymore because honestly I got tired of doing it in Vegas. People calling all the time asking every question under the sun does get a little tiresome, or not being able to do stuff on weekends because I have tune appointments lol. Ive tuned about half the evo's in vegas (around 25 people) and do have cars down there in the 11's I tuned on stock turbo. I go by word of mouth and quality of work. If any of you ever wanted me to take a look at a log or something, I never charge for stuff like that. Feel free to just ask its all good!

One question... do you think 8* of timing at peak boost going to around 16 by redline....is that aggressive??
Good deal man Im glad you log alot. I would be really worried. Theres no way thats detuned though, I hate to say lol. 24psi alone is pushing it on 91. anything over 11.1 afr is pushing it on 91. For an IX without cams, 4 to 8 degrees is the norm at peak torque, but yes 8 is being very aggressive. 16 at redline is VERY high, I usually am looking more along the lines of 13-14. Depends on how much your tapering off, and with a green it shouldnt be tapering like a stock turbo. Honestly I think thats way high.
BTW, you realize that .dll graphs are very innacurate and just basically a software guestimate right? If you want real numbers, I would recommend taking a trip to GST and talk to Bryan (razorlab) in the bay area. Since you head down to cali to race, I think it would be worth it.

That sounds alot better actually bro, should be pretty safe. Ya go see Bryan at GST I have learned alot from him, very cool guy. He has an 8 with a green so he has alot of experience with that turbo and running good numbers. I think they are in Modesto, not sure if thats anywhere around where you go down to. Im going to be in cali quite a bit this summer for bass tournaments lol so I want to go down there and get mine on his mustang too.

Hey everybody. Good to see the Reno Evo board alive and well.
EVOIXreno, when I had my IX, I also had a tune with 4WS and was satisified but it isn't perfect. I was getting occasional knocks that I was uncomfortable with and eventually learned to tweak the maps to dial in 4WS's original map. I would advise on keeping a close eye on the logs while trying to learn as much as you can so that you can tweak the maps if the need arises. The ecuflash forums on evom is great.
