oh, and timing table pic didn't look too bad if that is where he set it after experimenting with timing. If that was the pic of timing where he considered it the "pulled out a ton of timing", then you should pull out more to see what happens.

Verdad Gallardo above 12.0 is at risk of being too lean (depending on the quality of the fuel) and could cause detonation which can break stock parts. Target 11.0--11.5 A/f to be safe.

well kind of.... Not really so much on the tuning end as its been cold and raining and a brake line started leaking.
But as i've been redoing my brake lines and putting my line lock and two step in, i noticed 2 things that had contact with the body of the car that could possibly be giving false knock readings, tell me what you guys think....
The screamer pipe from my wastegate was barely touching my pass side fender well
and the torque arm looks like it was contacting the body in addition to having a somewhat noisy gearset installed ( used gears that whine a bit). I'm thinking this transferred noise thru the chassis.....
I'm going to address that and see what happens with datalogging
i'm also going to buy a boost controler soon so i can bump it a pound or so as its alledgedly knocking above my current boost level
any thoughts ??????

And has been repeated many times....if your tuner cannot distinguish real detonation from false...get very very far away from them
it does seem apparent from this thread your tuner is taking no real steps to actually detect knock....again, get far away from them
