I'm currently running the base map given to me from Paul, but had some issues when I tried to take it to get tuned. It seemed to run fine over the weekend but the day I drove to the tuning shop, my CEL came on. The code was P0171 and the tuning shop spent about 4 hours trying to diagnose the issue. They swapped the MAP sensor with other aftermarket ones but the code would not go away. I ended up reflashing back to Paul's base map and the code went away. Drove home and my car ended up dying when I exited the freeway. I was able to start it back up after and drive the rest of the way home.

I'm taking my car back to the shop that did the install and they're going to take a look over everything. I think there's a turbo header gasket leak, so Paul is sending me a gasket and hopefully fixing the leak will fix the issue. Then it'll be back on the dyno.
What was the shop using to try and tune it? Are they running ECUTEK?

Also, does the exhaust have any sort of adjustment on the hangers? I know the Perrin I run has hanger locks to be able to adjust the position of the exhaust.

edit: Also, that code means that it was running too lean, I'm guessing it may be a problem with the install. Have you tested for boost or vacuum leaks?
