The problem is the stock ECU is a greedy pig for fuel at the top end of the revs.
The mods down to the car have improved it a bit but it’s still too rich for my liking.
I agree with what you say with putting the car on a dyno to
Get the best setup possible but I would like to get a baseline and have a run before I put it on a dyno, as I am waiting on aftermarket trumpets to arrive before it goes on the dyno.
The 2 piggy backs were definitely in the car and were being used while it was in Japan, it was the person who imported the car who made a mess of the settings and wiped them before I bought the car from him.

oookay then.... no offence intended....
so the problem is that they don't flow enough air at top end when stock and fuelled by stock ECU?
and you have intake (CAI) and exhaust mods (cat back) to increase top end air flow?
so these mods have decreased top end air flow? or haven't increased it enough to take advantage of the stock overfuelling?
each motor is individual, and the only way to get the correct setting when you start stuffing around with stock fuel maps IS to put it on a dyno. how else can you quantify what effect the changes you make are having?
are you sure they were actually in use before you got the car? maybe they had been wiped as they were not being used? or were never programmed at all?
