    1) specify what it is you are looking for, or whats wrong
    2) your primary VE table looks...interesting. Whats up with the super lower values in the idle areas?
    3) are you running 32# injectors?

    i cant even out the o2's. the car seems to run rich and the knock rises to 6 in WOT. im running stock injectors, i thought they were 32lb's.

    im trying to learn on my own but i feel like its time to ask for help before i damage my car.

    Stock injectors for the 04's are 28#'s IIRC, but you injector table has been modified.

    Flash back in the stock tune and start again. Change only one thing at a time.

    I would start with idle, as thats the first thing your car does when your crank her over...

    Just set the injector scales right, if you have changed the injectors, or you will be chasing your tail.

    I don't normally post and ask questions because people tend to be negative in response.

    you can't be scared to learn, everyone asks stupid questions and sometimes they get shit for it. We have all been there and learned from it.

    Might pay to check your default file association for .HPT files under [Tools|Folder Options|File Types]
