Default Am I in the perfect range?

I recently subscribed to RWTD's tuning service and have gone through multiple tunes. The stock tune yielded KR anywhere from 1-4 degrees in WOT in gears 1-4.

After tuning we completely rid the car of KR in WOT from your most "important" gears (1-4). LT fuel is anywhere from -2 to 0.

I still get some KR (about 2-4 degrees) in 5th and 6th gear at WOT, but only when I step on it while cruising around 2K RPM. This was here even with my stock tune.

Car does seem to feel stronger in the low end, and I only have bolt-on's.

Any suggestions? Should I try for more timing, or keep my current tune?

Desensitize the knock sensors if you are sure that it's false knock.

Start going after WOT timing and PE now that you have part throttle tuning looking good.

Power Enrichment mode - defined as what happens when you 'mash the gas'. Basically it adds fuel to the system so you don't go lean.

Check out the sticky at the top of this forum regarding tuning. Read it several times so you understand how and what you are tuning.

you get knock in those gears at 2k because that is way too much load to be putting on the engine, dont do that. without data logging information there is really no further help we can give you. we have no idea what your timing is set to or anything, or your mods
