I actually had a dream last night where I was driving and I looked at my diagnostics and saw ignition advance at 2.5. This is my life now

after discussing with a few members (search the last 5 pages or so if you want), and doing my own data logging and analysis, it seems like the 91 tune specifically in the 3k-6k rpm range is too aggressive for actual 91 octane gas (California, at least), and causes engine knock. The engine computer compensates by dragging down the ignition timing across the whole rev range.

I encourage you to check it out for yourself!

I'll have to look into it. Thankfully we've got 93 here in Louisiana.

Sounds like you should move.

Yes, the gas is terrible. I am not trying to blame gas problems on the tune - but I think it could be friendlier.

If anyone is interested in an open flash header I'm selling mine. About a 2 months old now put about 2000 miles on it
