Here's a graph with knock back to oem numbers (with my reduced boost to under 30psi at all times) and the table. Now I wonder how much more power I had before the oem knock setting.

What are you using for a MAP sensor? The JDM 3bar can't even read 30# so either your formula is off or you have an OMNI 4bar in there or something along those lines.

It is jdm. In theory, it doesn't read that high, but I think it has cushion to read a little higher. But I agree that I don't trust the accuracy past 30psi. I did zero it out in the formula with engine off.
Are you sure about that? I'm not so don't want to pretend like I'm in the know. What I do know is I used to have a JDM 3 bar but replaced it with a 4 bar. 1 bar=14.7# and first bar is atmospheric pressure so you have 2 bars to work with aka 29.4# should be the max at least in theory.
That's a good point, but I would assume the 29.4 psi be the lowest reading so they will meet the minimum requirement to call it a 3 bar sensor. But when they build it, they should aim to read at least 32psi so that when some sensors fall short, it will still be good to sell.

The JDM MAP sensor will read accurately all the way to its limit which, IIRC, is about 32-33 psi.
