No problem. Yeah we can probably use an MT calibration. We'll try that in the next one.

So here would i add like (5 percent to 600 to 1600 all columns) and then (7 percent or so to 3700 to 7500 columns 1 to 6)
also it was a kinda short 3rd gear pull but i hope its ok

So here is an MT calibration. Give this one a drive and see how it goes. I can't turn off anything for trans codes on the auto, so hopefully it accepts the MT cal. I would imagine it would, but we will see.
As far as adjustments. I tend to focus more on rows than columns, unless there is a clear trend throughout the column. Based on your statement, I think you're focusing on casting too wide of a net. You can do it however you want, but I think when you cast a wider net of adjustments you will have a harder time getting your fuel trims really tight. There is more than one way to skin a potato, so don't take my word as the gospel. You just want to keep the lines smooth, make sure they never touch, and absolutely never cross over each other. But look at the fuel tables between the 0* and 10* in this next calibration, and you'll see the same smoothness is there (IMO), but the changes have been made in more detail in a smaller net than you outline.
Give this next one a drive and we'll see how it looks. Definitely try to run out the WOT pull to 7500 if you can. Otherwise we won't be able to move to the next cam angle. This one is the 0* again with vtec at 4000 now. Same datalog length and driving style.

MT Cal worked good! here is the datalog and i made it to 7000 forgot redline is 7500 now so i pulled throttle instinctively xD next one ill get to 7500 for sure! hopefully it was enough stop start and a good spread!

That's good to hear. It looks like this datalog is the same one you posted before. Can you double check everything and repost the newest datalog if possible.

Nah, no biggie. That one looks good though. I made some fuel adjustments and ignition for the knock. We will now move to the 10* cam angle with vtec at 5500. Take this one for a spin when you can. Also, you can let me know where you want the limiter too. For now we'll leave it at 7500 for tuning, but in the end you tell me where you want it.

I got work off for the holiday so I'll do it tomorrow as for the Rev limiter I just want it safe right but still in the power band it's of my opinion that more Rev available the better right?

Sounds good. It will start to fall off before 7000 most likely because of the stock header and exhaust. If you had an RH and exhaust it might make power above 7000, but still tough. With an RBC manifold it makes more power up top than the stock manifold. We'll see how the fuel tables look in the end and see. I would probably say in the end you could probably set it at 7200 and plan to shift at 7000. But some guys like to be able to rev it out to 7500 and leave the limiter there in case of a missed shift. I just didn't want you to think you had to leave it at 7500 because I said so. It's your car, so you tell me what you're comfortable with and we'll run with that.
We'll see how ti looks tomorrow.

Alrighty i got the datalog although its a few mins shy of 20 but i think its still good? i made another of my adjustments called noob and we can maybe see how i did? i also pulled some ignition for a knock that i had in the wot pull although i dont know if we should be doing that on the first adjustment but anywho! here you go!

as for the rev limiter might as well keep it at 7500 if its safe its never bad to have extra revs i guess xD and yea id be nice to get the vtc gear rbc and then rdx injectors and then maybe a 3 inch intake? but i dont know how that would go yet xD

So which calibration should I be looking at with this datalog? Mine or your noob calibration?
All that stuff is a good idea if you want to add them at some point. Make sure to get the mechanically limited VTC gear at probably 40*. That way you don't run into piston to valve clearance issues by adding too much VTC.

Use yours still I just made my adjustments compared to what you would do and see how close I was if that doesn't work then that's ok
And yea I'll definitely do that!

I see what you mean. Yeah you are on the right track, certainly nothing wrong with how you did it. I generally reduce the ignition in the offending cells, then I smooth from left to right and around the cells to keep it all smooth. You'll see in this next one. But yeah, certainly nothing wrong in what you did, I just wouldn't focus on entire rows if the only knock is on one side of the row.
Overall though it looks great. I made some minor fuel adjustments and the little bit of ignition for knock. Take this one for a spin when you can. This is the 10* cam angle with vtec at 4000 now.
