The maps just show how much the fuel/timing are being adjusted. So if the map shows all zeros then its just the stock tune. Unichip actually has a very handy way of doing real time tuning using pots that they can adjust to get and then send that adjustment to your map. Of course you can always manual make corrections to the map.

Jack and I spoke about the costs and that the obvious of setting everything to 0 meant the factory tune was unaffected. That was fine but thats always why I brought up that I was surprised the Unichip does not connect to or log knock, your not looking to change it but imagine your table there, showing you the active cells your hitting while driving and then another table of the same values showing you when the knock sensor spikes above the level that would signal knock is occurring and telling you even if just the voltage so you can tell how much. Or even further imagine monitoring the cam timing so when that knock occurs you can also see how much timing the computer pulled.
The Unichip method with POTS is interesting but going cell by cell under load is something I am not sure your familiar with. Have you ever tried to hold a 3rd gear pull at 3100 RPM exactly? N/A or Boosted its hard to do and you have to do that throughout the range and you certainly don't want to hold it knocking.
Now while the Unichip will allow for you to be within the factory safety levels once you add boost it changes everything and the first slip could be the last slip for that motor.
I do thank you for showing me that table that makes sense and was what I expected to see. What I really want to see is what it looks like while driving and logging. As trying to put two tables together by two different companies can be like trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle using another puzzle all together.

And 595 for the software with the POTS, Tech Support etc.
