I'm going to do something that I never do, and share a timing map, just to illustrate how fucked up that map is. Do not use this timing map in your car, you will blow it up.

This is the timing map from Acamas. This is fully tuned through the 300kpa row, and this map made 453whp and 427wtq. 292kpa peak, falling to 278kpa at redline. This is on E85 and a low-compression bottom end.

Sorry to hear that buddy. Can't say I wouldn't take it out on the guy in creative ways to get my money back after all that though.
