Waaait a sec lol. Unless you have the SC as well, you don't want to be using someone elses maps. Second of all, your car should be tuned to your local conditions. Different elevations and temperatures will affect how your car runs. Different mods will also affect the outcome. Say if they have headers, exhaust, and intake...then you only have intake then it won't be the proper tune for your engine.

Do you have an safc?
If so set your fuel to 0 across the board, I am assuming that you have larger injectors so you should be way rich at this point. But the wideband will tell. This will at least get you to the shop, if you are lean at any point then pull another 10% Chances are though that you will be way rich at 0.

You may be to rich to start if this is the case then set the low setting to like -25% from 1000-1800 rpm and see if that gets you started

THis is just a rule of thumb and you must have a wideband to be safe and you absolutely do not want to boost any, in fact you could remove the belt.

Morris is right. Either remove the belt or else just don't connect the power wire on the SAFC until you get to the dyno.

You cannot use someone elses settings - especially being that you are in Colorado.

I am assuming that you are running 310 injectors. If so you will be overly rich and the car may not even start. My guess is that you are going to have to hook up the safc to pull some of the fuel out in order to get it to start and run.
The only way I think you can get it dialed in enough to drive is with the wideband.

The other option is if you have AAA then call them and have them tow the car. They give you 100 miles free.

Maybe the way you got it but it doesnt come from RMM that way. Chances are that you are going to be extremely rich.

if its the 310's, you can lean it out just a bit and don't boost on your way to the shop...

If it were me I would see if I could tune out enough fuel first with the 440's if you cant then you will have to go smaller. But you might as well try first. If you had a wideband you could try it on your own without shelling out the bucks for Dyno time. At least you could see if you can even get in teh ball park.

I agree with morris on the wideband...that's the best way to attempt to tune it
