    Hey fixing one thing at a time man! lol
    Honestly there is alot of potential left in your tune as most tables are still at stock values.

    Good advice.You can keep track of what the changes do. Me on the other hand, I can't help myself. I changing too much stuff and loose my way and start back tracking them out one at a time.

    Yea I went down that rabbit hole just recently myself. During the course of a tuning session I may create 5-20 files but I discovered the history feature of the editor and that is a life saver!

    Does the car die if you put the car in drive or are you saying it is ONLY after hard acceleration? Can you post up a fresh log of a hard acceleration and the resulting stall?

    I uploaded a log file and I can drive around on it just cruising and it acts like it is fighting itself at idle jumping 200 rpms up and down coming back to idle but after hard acceleration and slowing down to probably 5mph it just dies

    There are many other areas in your tune that need to be optimized. Fueling is the next area I think you need to focus on. Your fuel trims look pretty off.

    Increase the values on the idle integral max table to 30. I think factory is 25 at 0 mph and 7 ish at other speeds. Change them all to 30 and see what happens.
