Default I still suck at tuning accel

I'm now experiencing the joy of tuning accel enrichments. I tried EAE but disabled it to use normal AE since I didn't feel like putting in the hours to get it right...yet. That and normal AE has been used by many of you for years so I thought it couldn't be that hard to set up.

If you look in my attached pics, you'll see my settings and a quick log of running through a couple gears. And you'll see the ridiculous lean spike when I mat it starting the run. I'm getting the typical lean spike after shifting issue, too. After searching on here and seeing others' settings, I don't see why my pulsewidth adders are so huge and I'm still getting lean/stumbling issues. Is there anything blatantly wrong with my settings? I'd love to actually drive the car without tuning it one of these days. My VE table is pretty solid, so that's not the issue. I can post my msq if desired. Thanks!

I get lean shifts too but if you add some throttle before releasing the clutch it's much better

EAE takes not hours.

it almost impossible to tune out lean spikes: latency, batch injection, etc, all impact it negatively. EAE helps a **** ton, seq. injection nearly cures it, much better than both my oem cars.

I am running sequetial injection. So my current AE settings don't seem excessive for the behavior in the log? I do plan on using EAE eventually. Argh I swear transient throttle tuning will drive me crazy. Couldn't get it right on the old emanage setup, either. I am gonna have to buy diy's new book.

Any ideas on where I could even start when turning on EAE does this? AFRs rock a solid 10 and it's pretty much undriveable with the RPM correction curves set to 100% and the base settings for sucked from, added to walls curves.
