I am running slower on 20PSI then I was on 15PSI with stock fuel system so I know my issue lies in my tuneing.

Car now has the 850cc injectors and fuel system. My standalone turned the requires fuel setting down so it idles just finr with the 850CC injectors now with a 1.2% duty cycle at idle and a 40-45% at WOT.

My WOT timeing is 17 degrees on 91 octane. The car just doesn't seem to want to pull like I would expect a EVO III on 20 PSI to pull. I lost bad to car car I had previouslly only lost to by 1 car on the 15PSI map.

My AFRs are 10:1 - 11:1 on the wideband. I prob could pull alot more fuel out at WOT but and concered abou the timeing. From searching it looks like I should be able to run 24 degrees at WOT while I am only doing 18-19. Should I add more timing? What is the general consensous, I have a ton of fuel now and had to tune it way back to keep it from jokeing it's self out at WOT and now runs much better but there is alot left I need to get done.

Base Fuel pressure is now set to 45psi.
 
Here are my timing and fuel maps... Tables.

You should defientely lean it out a bit and then play wit the timing a bit but try not to go too far with the timing. Just take a little fuel and if everything looks good add some timing, do this in small portions at a time until you begin too see knock or your A/F gets too lean. You will definitely feel a little more power if you lean it out a bit and increase the timing a couple of degrees, just dont over do it we dont want you to have a blown motor.(Blown Motor=Bad :notgood: ) :dsm: :talon: :laser: If you have any doubts about what im saying then wait a bit im sure the real gurus will help you out.
 
If any AEM users out there have a tuned Timing Map they can post up so we can compare timing curves that would be great.
