I would post this in the AEM EMS section. Looks like a lot of timing at low RPM but I'm not familiar with logging the AEM to say anything about knock voltage.

It's maybe just a little lean up top and it's too lean during the transition to boost. You probably are not seeing knock there but you could be if your car loaded up at lower rpm. I dont see why you should ever be leaner than 14.7.
11.7 - 11.8 is certainly not what I would call dangerously lean but at the same time it's also not conservative either. Normally I tune to 11.1 at redline. If your knock voltages are low and you feel that the car was tuned properly to begin with then your probably fine. Have you tried posting your logs in the AEM tuning thread?
I have my car's fueling tuned as follows but I'm on the stock turbo
transitioning from non boost 14.7 areas, to boost areas of the map I richen to around 12.50 (2500-3000 rpm)
full spoool and peak torque ~12.0 (4000 rpm 23-25psi)
mid range after full spool 11.5 (4500-6000)
richening to 11.1 at redline (6000-7800)
Different tuners have different tuning strategies, so the 17afr in your map may be ok since it's low load and the turbo is just starting to spool up. Personally I would not like to see anything leaner than 14.7 after going WOT.

Yeah I have tried posting in the AEM EMS forums and not really got much of a reply to my newer data loggs. I really am not getting very high knock sensor voltages so I guess it's fine. I guess I'm just paranoid because I've spent a lot of time and money on this car lol
