My DD, ongoing project.

umm, why not just run a stock p28 map. it will be close.
I ran a stock b16 ecu on my mini-me and it ran just fine i had a comp cam in it also.

cuz the differences between the p28 and p2p fuel maps were substantial enough that I thought it would be better to run the p2p fuel maps considering that i needed to run more fuel with the higher compression anyway. it really wasn't that much work to import the p2p map to the p28.
for some reason i cannot for the life of me get a p30 rom to run on my ecu, i get code 36 which is supposed to be traction control or something on a jdm ecu, which i obviously dont have, and i cant get rid of that code. i'd like to have the use of 2 step and no lift to shift tho. oh well.

It just sounds like your making more work for yourself. The 2 step and no lift shift also sound funny for a extremely mild mini-me build.
I'm not trying to insult you i just don't see how you will ever use those features.

sweet build John!!

yeah, probably, but now I know how to export a fuel table to one of a different size, amirite?
as for the plugins? what, you've never been curious? i'd like to be able to try them for myself rather than just seeing how they work on paper, but i can't, and it's frustrating. i'd also really like to see an antilag plugin work as that is a nice piece of programming.
if i wanted to make things easier for myself i could have put on a z6 head instead of the oddball y8, bought an obd conversion harness instead of making it myself, bought a chipped and vtec added ecu instead of pissing around with that (to be fair I did ruin the first p28 I had. i somehow broke the o2 sensor functions) , had someone else do the work, and myriad other things that would have saved my ever growing bald spot. hell, i could have just slapped an intake, header, and exhaust on the a6 with no mpfi conversion and called it a day. That wasn't really the point tho.
The point was to get in way over my head and dig myself out.
I wanted to learn as much as I could on this first build without spending much money. I'm still very cheap, that hasn't changed. I came up with the idea for the setup I wanted based on the amount of DIY work I could do cheaply to get it there.I had never swapped a head before or even seen it done. Nick or Kevin (not sure who actually did it) were nice enough to swap the head on my dsm for cheap when my balance shaft belt went and got into the timing belt.
I didn't know that changing obd systems was even feasible, or why anyone would want to in the first place. I didn't know how mechanical and ignition timing works, or why I would need to mess with them. Crome and Uberdata looked like a pile of numbers and bullshit when I started out.
My tuning of the dsm consisted of porting the exhaust side of the turbo, getting a MBC, a bigger fuel pump, and chasing boost leaks. Not too complicated, but i still think with a good trans and clutch that car could have ripped out some good numbers.
And yeah, might be a 'mild' build, but i'd say it's pretty good for a noob.
After I get this all tuned and whatnot, and possibly down the track a few times, I might try building the bottom end, and put the stuff I have sitting around on.
On the other hand, this car needs alot of work still. It needs tires, brakes, and shocks before winter sets in which i'll need to come up with the money for. Sometime over the spring/summer the honda rot on the rear fenders started and is creeping it's way from barely noticable to annoying. So I don't know how much more money I really want to put into it. I've always secretly wanted a white fox body mustang gt tho, so that might be a possibility. Or maybe another 1g DSM. I dunno.
