92 octane. That is the best we have here in ak. I usually do log iat's but they are always low here. What makes the knock come in so suddenly like it does in the pic above?

Man, I wish we had 92. We only have 91 here.

That's how knock usually comes on. the sensor hears it, and drops timing immediately.

I agree, you are in the 12.xx A/F range at peak torque. Thats the point cylinder pressures are the highest. Add more fuel in that range. Maybe upper 11:1 range. Then test adding more fuel and more timing and see what results in KR and what feels more powerful.

Raise the numbers in the PE RPM table.

OK. I had to gently lower the timing to 13 in the hugh octane table and now I am getting no knock. I am now trying to dial in my pe-rpm a little closer.

2 questions:
How do you adjust part throttle afr?
when I am cruising and step into the throttle, but not enough to let it shift into 3rd, my advance goes WAY down, any ideas there?

I will get some more screen shots up in a little bit

The only thing I've ever changed is afr in PE. I have it set to go into PE at 40 % throttle instead of 90% or whatever it is stock. I don't even know if you can change it at cruise?

Do you have PE delay zeroed? Stock its like 1 second.(not good)

I've never really messed with part throttle timing, so I can't help you out on that.
