Ok, so i started to feel more confident and I am starting to understand how to adjust my timing and what not. Well after i threw on the 3" TBE i noticed that i was getting higher Engine Load and i was hitting Fuel Cut...

Now the time came to do some logs and i noticed that my load goes up to like 150-160 when i am use to it being around 120-130 lol..

I decided to also up the boost to 22-23 psi. And i have started to change the timing around gettng rid of my knock and making the transitions a little more smoother. So far it looks like i am doing ok.

But a few questions did pop up in my head...

Well first since the load increased i decided that i would increase the Boost Limit Table Load Settings to the following:



Is this safe or am i gonna blow something up lol? Suggestions would be great.

Below is my timing map that i have been changing around little by little as i read.



Comments/suggestions welcome about the timing map as well.

Sometimes when i do a 3rd WOT i get like 2 counts of knock at 3500 RPM and 246% load but usually i am knock free. Is that something to worry about as well?

Most likely i will have more questions as i will be doing the A/F Ratio tomorrow.

 

I think a timing increase of 4* may be a bit much for 2500-3500 rpm. I'm just learning as well but that seems to stand out of what has been changed on this table.

 

Okay, i see that lol.. i guess i still got a lot of work to do...

But what about changing the loads in the boost cut table is that okay to go that high?

 

Typically I like to set boost cut 15% then the highest load I will set, which is either in 4th or 5th.

 

So in my logs 2Byte Load shows my peak load is right around 270... So I'm guessing that i should make the boost cuts even higher to around like 285? Or just leave them as they are above because i am not hitting fuel cut with it? Oh and thanks for all the help. I'm trying to be safe while learning in the process haha


Nvm, just read back over that stickied how to tune thread and i re-read the boost cut info. I understand that now.. Now it's time to get back to my timing table i will post the results after i am done.
