Default 175 shot, 93 octane, timing?

As the topic says, what timing? Essentially stock motor, wet 175 shot, 93 octane. 24 degrees? Currently I see no knock at 28 degrees and a 75 shot, and no knock on 26 degrees and a 125 shot.

Try 22 degrees with the 175 then easy your way up. How are you adjusting timing?

Stock tune being 26 degrees? And you're not knocking on a 175? Wow.

my 150 has no knock at all, so a additional 25 shouldnt cause knock, anyway, the computer should sense any knock and automaticly pull timing to stop knock.

The problem is, it has to knock before the computer pulls timing. That's how people blow their engine. Today's computers can pull timing very quickly, but there still has to be at least a minute amount of detonation before it knows to pull timing. Plus, if you're going around forcing your computer to pull timing like mad, your EGT's will skyrocket.

Nope, I left the tuning stock. Whatever my car came with from the factory. However, I did end up pulling 10° last night for my 250 shot (2800-6000 RPM on HPTuners)

250 on a stock motor...now that is too much for me. I'm not that lucky.
