Cleaned up some fuel. create a normal log with a WOT pull. Create a WOT log revving the car to 7600rpm. Make sure to hold the car at 3000rpm for about 5 seconds before you do the pull. Make sure you are in 3rd gear and you do it on a flat road.

Tried to get the car to 7600, but at like 7100 the car's RPMs started going DOWN. It felt like there was knock control pulling timing or something. Not sure. I tried it twice on the run to verify something wasn't up but it consistently did the same thing both times. Other than that I can tell you are cleaning up the map. It feels more like a daily driver each time!

I cleaned up the fuel. What you might have felt up high was lean protection. I have it on as a safety. We are moving to VTC 40. Create a normal log.

Also side note: ignore the datalog from 2:40. I may or may not have been doing some donuts (its using a gps speedo).

I cleaned up some of the fuel. Create a similar log. Try to get the WOT pull as clean as you can.

Did anything happen during the pull? I see that the rpm spiked around 6000rpm. The rpm spikes from 6000 rpm to 6700rpm and then drops to 6400rpm. The boost is also going above 14psi. The max boost in this run was 25psi.

Nothing happened weird during the pull, no. Could have been a bump on the road or something. Yes, I had the boost set to 25 during the pull. Is that ok?

Try and redo the run on a flat road. Setting the boost to 25psi is fine by me. I don’t see any knock and the fuel is ok. I am just keeping tabs on it to make sure nothing is going wrong. Keep me in the loop if you are making any changes on your end.

Once you get a clean pull for this run we will move to the vtec side.

Sounds good! I'll send you that in an hour or so when I get home.

See below for the runs you requested:

3rd Gear WOT (I did it twice just to be sure):
10-7 3rd gear 2 WOT.kdl

Driving normally to get to the spot to do 3rd gear pull:
10-7 Getting to spot.kdl

I will mention that the car IS stalling after a WOT sometimes. It reacts better after a little blip of the gas pedal so that it isn't such an abrupt drop in RPMs. Not 100% sure why it dies but you can see it in the 3rd GEAR WOT log I included. I dumped the clutch (at :27) in order to get the engine running again to do the 2nd 3rd Gear WOT.

She is getting fast!
Thanks again for all of the hard work.

I will add some fuel down low to mitigate that issue. We are moving to the VTEC side. You will start to feel the power more. Create a normal log.
