I've seen a lot of reflashes (no, not from turbotrix) that attempt to run ignition timing numbers 4-5 degrees past the point of MBT. It may get a strong one pull on the dyno, but on the street it feels inconsistent and always on the verge of knock--- regardless of how rich the logs on the dyno suggest.

My 2c,
shiv

Would an A/F ratio of 11.5-11.6 change at all with factors like high or low temps (90+ or -10 degrees F), humidity or elevation possibly causing the engine to run leaner?

You'll have to excuse my for my ignorance as I am not very mechanically inclined ....but trying to learn
