quick question

i found out that the power fc i have is tuned stock motor,stock turbos(14psi),850cc prim., 1300cc sec., supra pump, intake, downpipe, midpipe, and catback. I have almost the same identical set up except for street ported motor, bnrs, and hiflow cat. my question is could i use this map to start up my freshly rebuilt motor and break it in.

When breaking in a new motor, you are not suppose to get on boost for about 500 miles and keep the rpms below about 3000. Then you slowly over time increase the rpms and use boost until about 1000-1500 miles.
Almost any GOOD map will be fine up to about 5psi boost, but if it has never run in your car, you might have idle and cruise problems if not specially tuned on your car for your engine.

You do not say anything about your map being used for your engine before the rebuild.

If it is tuned for a stock engine and you are running a ported engine to be safe I would retard the timing 3-4 degrees when it is under boost.
