Its just the logging, because the car doesn't do anything bad when it occurs.
what loadfactor are you using?

you probably have it set to 1.7, but you need 1.8

The problem with too much resolution is that the timing advance resolution sucks.

If we had 0.5 degree timing advance increments, it would be fine, but being limited to 1 degree increments pretty much eliminates the reasoning for anything smaller the 500 RPM increments in much of the map. The increase in load axis though, particularly on the MAF is a bonus without a doubt on the VIII ECU.

Tephra, no worries man. The added resolution is awesome and will be a true benefit to the community. Thank you.
I would hardly call my statement incorrect or "wrong" as you put it. While ignition advance increments of .5* and lower are industry standard, they are very rarely needed. You must understand, that if you are trying to eek .5 degs of ignition advance, you are tuning on the wrong side of the jagged edge. If you need to do this, it would be best to eat the other .5* anyway. You won't loose much power by doing this and the tune would actually be safer throughout. 1 deg increments are fine. Higher res would be better, but since we don't have that option currently, i don't think it's hindering us very much. Mitsubishi obviously didn't feel it were necessary, or they could of written that into the code with a fair amount of ease.

That's my point though, if you leave the stock resolution, you don't have to eat that 0.5 degree. The ECU just interpolates automatically at the mid point. Either way, we can simply agree to disagree.

Point remains though, the extra resolution is a good thing in that the tuner can set it up as they wish.

Myself, I will just use it to extand the range and tune the stock range since I'm not reving higher then stock. Trying to setup 250 RPM increments with the added resolution was a huge mistake though and using the stock resolution provides better driveability and is plenty fine enough to make the power smooth.
