I didn't fully understand your explanation of the changes, but if you changed your boost load offset from 60-->80, didn't you essentially raise your boost for day 2?

Torque seems a little low. I usually see 297-299ft.lbs and 310whp. What mods do you have? What boost are you running?

Personally, I'd use the weather data from accuweather.com, NOT the stuff coming in through EvoScan. I just don't know that I'd trust the EvoScan data. I mean, we've all beaten it to death for accuracy of things like coolant temp, rpm, etc., so we have some confidence there. But who's ever bothered to check the accuracy of the baro readings? I read somewhere that the intake air temp way off (too high), which would greatly mess up your readings in DLL if you're assuming that to be the ambient temp.

Changed the offset doesnt seem like it affected the boost at all. I still see 20psi on the gauge. On that cold night though I did see the gauge spike to 23 psi and you see it in the graph because the torque rose higher over the 2nd run. If I raise the boost to 23 psi, which I may I am sure I can get more power, also I need to buy some cam gears.

Mods = 3inch exhaust, downpipe, stock 03 turbo, 9.8.., fuel pump, upper and lower intercooler piping and treadstone intercooler, comp 272's Most guys here I see are running 23 on pump. I will raise mine when I get a chance too. Still waiting to get cam gears too.

You have one pull that you where knocking 5-6 counts so it probably pulled atleast 2 degree's of timing. Which that much might not have been needed. You then take 1 degree out and it stopped knocking? and now you make more power? Looks fine to me.

One thing I forgot to ask last night when I was looking at your fuel maps, do you have your lean spool enabled or disabled completely? If it is enabled and you have definitions for it where do you have it set? I am wondering if thats some of the difference between how our fuel maps are set.

I dont see a lean spool only an anti lag.

Its a definition you have to add (well actually two definitions). Address 1281 and 1285. I have forgotten that I have it completely disabled and when I look at other people's fuel maps they always look REALLY RICH. Basically it pulls one full point lean (or so) with a factory default of enable at 2500 rpm and disable at 7000.
