To really set timing properly, you need to use a load bearing dyno. Otherwise, err on the side of safety and lower the timing.

Your High Octane Table is reasonable, thus I'd start out by zeroing out your fuel mixture spark correction table.

Is there any other way to do this without a dyno? There isnt one close. So just zero out the whole table then for now? Anything else that draws your thoughts off hand.

That's the biggie right there.

As far as timing. You can get it running decent without a dyno, but you can't get your timing perfect without one. It's important to be sure that you're not knocking audibly nor seeing any KR.

Looks like we are not receiving notifications with respect to subscribed threads.

Thanks DC Justin. Sometimes I forget that everyone with boost and tuning software is not running a 2 bar custom OS.

GM.AFR(commanded air fuel ratio) should be in the PID list. Did you Validate the PIDs with the FlashScan connected to your vehicle? (INFO> Validate PIDs)

The IFR table does need to be correct. I have seen these injectors setup anywhere from 5.0 - 5.3 g/s. Lower will get you more fuel.

Stay out of boost until the knock issue gets sorted out. Can you hear the knock? Is this a fresh blower install?

Edit: Boy you guys were busy while I was typing!

I cant hear the knock and its not a fresh blower install. I ditch the whipple craptronics. The cam is new though along with the injectors.

Oh, you're lean in boost. If I had to guess based on your narrowband voltage (not reliable), I'd guess you're sitting at around 13.3-13.6:1 AFR in boost. Is the MAF stock?

Don't go anywhere NEAR boost until that is fixed.
