Feel free to PM me with your email as I have experience in tuning these engines I can give you decent idea of ignition needed at idle, PT and WOT as for fuel just target 12.8 across the board for now, that AFR should run just fine.

But using MAP based tune on ITBs may not work so well, do you have the option to use TPS? or a combo of TPS and MAP?

The very best would be to build a air tight plenum on top of those ITBs then a horn off the plenum with a 3" MAF and use true MAF for metering air very accurately.

Something like this can easily have MAF sensor adapted to it.

Here's example of itbs with MAF, not a 911 engine but to give you the basic idea

Today, I finally got the car out on the road for a short, 10 mile test drive. The engine definitely needs tuning - I can tell it wants more fuel and more timing. The character of this engine is definitely different from the previous engine, but I am thankful and relieved for it just to be running. Now, I change the oil, stare at the AFR and timing tables and make changes so I can be ready for the next tuning / test drive....
