Thoughts on my knock?
Thoughts on my knock?
Is my timing still too far advanced? My AFR looks OK, right?

I can't comment on your timing, but just comparing it to my logs... yikes. Just my opinion, but if I was seeing that much knock I would definitely STOP driving my car. Then maybe pull some timing and maybe add a little fuel. Try and get down to 3 or less knock counts across the rev range.
Looks like you're more modded than I am, and I am by no means an expert tuner, but with that much knock you've gotta be losing power as a result of the ECU pulling timing to protect your engine.

the 2 and 3 degree jumps in the first log are probably lending to the knock problem. You aren't pushing very much timing. Those numbers might be an issue if you are running 91 though.
Because i'm lazy, i figured i would just ask him to post his ignition table. lol

Was he tuned by you(or by another vendor)? There is nothing wrong with him posting his maps in order for us to help him. Trust me, i doubt anybody wants to "steal" his ignition timing....lol. I swear. You vendors kill me sometimes...i mean all the time.
The guy wants help....the only way i can help is if i know all the information. Besides, anybody can figure out his actual timing values by doing the math.

I am not convinced that you are qualified to help him, especially as you have demonstrated that you have overlooked the data already provided.
I agree with TTP, his AFR;s are way off. He needs to get that corrected before looking into the ignition side. Once you start knocking....it just keeps going and going., its like a bad disease.
I concur as well. Fueling doesnt show compensation for the pump, tip-in/peak torque is EXTREMELY lean for pump gas, and the load is peculiarly low. I would surmise that you are currently boosting less than stock OR if you are boosting at an indicated stock level you have some gremlins.
What octane fuel and what boost level? When was the last time you looked inside your intercooler?

For those mods his load is somewhat low actually. A bonestock VIII runs in the 220 range +/- based on air conditions for peak load. Conservative is definitely true, and is partly why I find the knock (other than being fueling induced) rather odd. That being stated, I am still curious for his answers.
have you done a proper free air cal lately ? I was having problems with high knock with conservative timing and fuel only to find my LC1 was reading almost a full 1.0 afr richer than actual. even though it swept properly (14.5-14.8) in closed loop it was reading mid 11 afr even though the dynos wb was reading mid 12 afrs. after a good cal it read accurately.
I hit mid 250 load cells at 20 psi on my car (map and 2 byte logged) so he may be in the 18 psi range.

Here's the High Octane Fuel and Timing maps. I'm using 93 octane. It's hitting about 20psi on my autometer gauge.
I did do a free air calibration on the O2 sensor but that's been a couple of months ago. I'll try to calibrate it again today.
I've NEVER looked inside my intercooler, but I do have a catch can. Perhaps I should "break the seal" and give it a look.
