Don't get in too big a hurry to buy me a beer until you see if it runs. It might not, lol. Your idle settings like fast and slow recovery and deadband may likely need more tweaking because every car is different. And you will want to use tunerstudio to autotune your ve table for fuel again to make it smooth out.

Crap. I didn't adjust your AFR target table. Manually adjust your AFR target table to values similar to these and it should idle and run great with excellent cruise economy. I should really be running leaner in the 170kpa range but I'm a sissy about detonation. I should probably take it to 11.5 on that row.

Your 460s will fight you with those AFR targets in the idle cells. The 460s have more latency than what Hussy is using and you may have difficulty with it being unstable. Otherwise it looks fine even though his MAP values are scaled differently in boost.

Make sure you don't autotune fuel until engine is fully warmed up.
