Alright lol....wear  your race boots.

Post a log if you want...maybe i can tell you what i see in relation to others....and if i recall you selected a tire that was shorter than stock so you should have a nice mechanical advantage from gear multiplication that i would think could help more than others

here is my latest log with the revised tune.

Well dammit, im at work now...will look tonight....

So this is for the newest tune or the tune that ran the dissappointing time?

And i may be able to be more descriptive if you have a log from the previous tune for direct comparison

 

[zach_435]

that was for the new tune

Here is one from later in the day with disappointing time

The first tune really needed tweaked.....Your throttle never stayed open very long and was cutting in and out on you. And boost was way down. Way below 3 bar tune levels...That's basically the problem.

On the newest tune, the throttle was open and under control but only slightly more boost was being commanded....See desired TIP. 206 KPA is about 15 psi and that's the typical 3 bar tune commanded boost with the exception of boost spikes at the upshift. And you are well below that.

You have some knock retard but I wouldn't worry about it...Don't think I saw more than about 3 degrees....But you can have knock retard even if you were not commanding boost at all....It's simply trying to run max spark at any and all loads. So that's why you typically see knock retard.

I could make a tune that I can almost guarantee zero knock retard, and I think some of you may like seeing that but you wouldn't like seeing people's tail lights either .

Let Torrie send you more revisions and you will get better results at the track....You need more boost, it will come
