The TBI isn't really sophisticated enough to handle the tune you want for Atkinson function. Like the other guy said, the sensors are wrong.

really I think the Atkinson project does have enormous potential, but starting from a TBI SBC is probably the second-hardest way to do it (first hardest being carbureted) - but skipping past the more mundane but proven techniques that might get you closer to your goal anyway.

In the 30's and 40's when EFI was nothing but a pipe-dream, Miller-cycle engines still had to rely on carburettors. And what is nowadays labelled as Atkinson is basically a Miller without the blower.
