No they do not. Those sort of things are not done using a tune. Such a method involves a change in the algorithm inside the ECU

That would be modeled cat temp. I was talking about measured real temp. Once we start messing with stuff I am not sure if modeled temp holds true to measured.

Haha wife is okay. Puerto Rico is nice. Lovely.

Looking at your AFR spiking at below 2K rpm your header has a long scavenging length. Preferable for good low end torque.

Be careful adding too much spark at engine speed making peak torque. Up to 3800rpm should be okay. Some engines I have worked on goes straight to pre-ignition. Don't want thatone
