stage II questions

I just installed my boost gauge and have my utec set on the turboxs stage II map. It is called the 22 psi map, but I am only hitting 19psi. I do not have the abc installed yet and I am wondering if that is all I need to hit 22 psi.

Also more importantly is the fact that I experienced some knock on a run through second gear. This is with 93 octane and an outside temp of 65 degrees F. I do not have my laptop in so i have no log, but I was just wondering if anyone else was having knock.

Thanks
Roy

Yes, the ABC should be installed and adjusted.. Also look at your map, see what the duty cycle is for the boost map, I recall it being 75% in most load sites.. you can raise the duty cycle a little higher, but its likely you'd get spiking and then settle at 19psi in upper RPM..

I was getting knock at 6K on the stage 2 map. I added 6% fuel and it seems to have cleared up.

How many turns out are you guys turning the ABC to get 22psi. With the Stg2 map and duty cycle at 75, I was only hitting 15psi. I set it to 100% duty cycle and it hits 20-21 and taper to 18psi at redline.

I have gotten knock in the 4-5k rpm range. I switched back to map 0 and i am hitting 21 psi and tapper to around 19 no problem. Car feels faster too but that could just be my mind. O well i need the tuner.
