Talking Completed my first tune. Take a look?

Well, after having HPTuners for a few months I've finally got my tune where i think i want it. did VE till STFT's were within +- 2 for almost all cells, MAF till STFT's were +-4, PE, and Spark as well as changing my transmission tables. I just got back from about a 30 minute drive. lots of cruising, some WOT pulls, and other various driving. I'm not getting any KR at WOT that i saw and there's a few times were i got less than a full degree of KR. I did get one spike where i have 5* of KR at about 2500 with 34% tps. Theres a few other spots where it got 1* or so but out of the 30 minutes drive there were only a handful of times, and none of WOT that i saw.

anyone willing to take a look at my tune file and log and make a few suggestions/check my work?

This is with 91 octane and N/A. I plan to pull 6-7 degrees of timing for a 150 shot.

How did you come up with that timing table?

Was it a copy and paste from the repository?

Overall, you do have a good bit of knock retard. Personally, I would start with the stock timing table and log some WOT runs. Then go in and adjust the WOT cells so you have a nice smooth timing advance curve. The way it is now, it just hits around 29-32 and stays there for the entire pull.

Below is a log of when I ran my truck at the track. It has a Nelson tune. Check out the timing.

It was from the repository yes, i smoothed it out a little though. Basically my goal was to get the WOT done atleast decently so i could run the truck at the track this weekend just to see what she will do with a little bit of timing difference, and to see how it runs on spray. over the next few weeks or so i planned on dialing it in much better. This is mainly just a base line for the timing table.

Gotcha, well I would subtract at least a degree from the whole table to help keep you away from knock and just due to the fact that all the numbers are high. Shouldn't hurt power at all.

For TCC duty cycle, I set max at 100 and min at 90.

Don't forget to raise your speed limiter. It would suck to waste a pass at the track because of that.
