ok, now it makes more sense.

last question: 30 on accel and 90 on decel are the lockup percentages indeed? or the degrees of the according ramps?

because as i wrote above, 30% acc and 90% decel is a pretty "exclusive" setup for a FR trackcar like a M3/Z4... i know nobody else who builds or drives such a setup in these kind of cars. if the 90% decel lockup is true, you would have massive (!) turn in understeer! and on corner exit you will use only a small part of the torque available (especially on dry tarmac with sticky tires).

anyway: even this "strange" setup would already be an improvement over the stock unit.
