Engines tend to be more linear in boost than out of it - and unless this is in a speedboat, they typically spend more time out of boost than in it. So I typically recommend dedicating 8 rows to 100 kPa or less, and 4 to the boost region - this typically gives better drivability.

If you have it idling rich on a VE in the 20s, this is often a sign your dead time is set too high.

And get that wideband in there - this will tell you a lot more about how correct the VE table is for your specific engine than a forum post will.

What columns go to what boost levels on the timing map?

I.E. 270 = 10psi ?

100 kPa is no boost, and 200 is 14.7 psi. So 270 would be 25 psi of boost.

well i got my fuel map sorted out the car idles high (about 1100 rpm) takes throttle pretty well stumbles if ya stab it though. and the starter kickback is nuts i ordered a diy wheel see if that helps.
