Yeah, that way we can get you on something safer until you get premium in there. Take it for a quick drive and I’ll look over the datalog when you post it.

Looking it over right now. Can you post the calibration you're driving on, I'm curious to see a few things.

Yeah you had 46 knock in 20 minutes. I would have expected worse, but it's still a lot higher than we want.

Throw the attached file in and make a 20 minute datalog. We can at least work on the fueling a little bit while you get through this 87 octane. Keep it to normal driving, no WOT still until we get premium fuel in there. But upload this one, make a datalog, then post it up so I can look it over and see where we're at.

Yes, download it and open in FlashPro. Then connect the FlashPro to your laptop, then to the car and flash it just like you did with the race calibration you have in the car now.

Just be patient man, it gets better as we get going here. It's running on the 0* cam angle only which is the least powerful, plus the fueling isn't perfect on the first swing. The main thing is all your knock is gone. Take this next one for a drive and we'll see how it looks and drives.

Looks good man. Run this Rev03 until you get premium fuel in there and then we'll go from there. Keep me in the loop on when you think you'll have premium in there. It's knock free now, so that is good until you get premium in there and we'll start the tuning process.

Okay, now that we have 93 in there we can get started. Take this next one for a 20 minute drive, on the drive, throw in a WOT pull in third gear from 2500-8600. We'll see how it all looks and go from there.

Yeah they will get better as we go. Unfortunately there wasn't much usable data in that datalog. Your WOT pull was from 5000-6800 or so, we need them to be 2500-8600 to get the data we need. You only got the the throttle body opening to 89% too, so you didn't go WOT all the way unfortunately. The datalog was also only 9 minutes long, we need them to be 20 minutes at least.

I am going to change things up a bit. I am going to put you on a completed file that is already tuned for your setup. Instead of going cam angle by cam angle, this one will have the cam angle map laid out already and should pull pretty hard. If you have your wife with you on this one, she will freak out even more. So you might make this run without her, haha. So shoot for 20 minutes and length, with a WOT pull in third gear from 2500-8600 with your foot to the floor.
