I dont really know how to set an SMC, but it seems that you are just getting confused with the tuning aspect. I also have no clue on how many "points" you can tuned it. I would try a -40% to -38% all across to get you started. If you need more fuel, then try -38%......

mine worked great for what it is...just takes a while to set everything...i ran 13psi daily driven with it...soon to be upwards of 18 after the engine is done

some1 correct me if im wrong.. but the whole idea is just this..

since you are using 450cc injectors you need to get them down to 240cc to idle fine like a stock motor.

450cc - 40% = 270cc
450cc - 35% = 292.5cc
450cc - 45% = 247.5cc

trying to target 240cc for idle right? then you get the fuel up by using -35% for the rest of the rpm band ??

hmm.. will a fuel pressure regulator and guage help me in my situation?

It probably would. I got mine idling decently at -47% (I got a vac leak and am dumping hella fuel) but someone said that equaled out to 240cc injectors. Try -47 through 1,000 (1,500 if your using the smc500) and like -38 or so everywhereelse. And watch your A/F gauge to make sure your not leaning out in boost.
