Opinions on my timing map

only question is timing, where should timing be around for

-during boost
-peak boost
-when boost drops.

peak boost 3500 rpms with evo 9 turbo, mods in sig

below is my pulls in 4th gear, I just need some input, I have read all pages of merlins tuning guide, it seems the only thing left out was how much timing for each category to optimize your performance, but i do realize every car is different

Quick tip, only log the following items:
TPS, RPM, Load, KnockSum, Timing, Wideband, and AFRMAP

You are logging way too many things and it is slowing your logger down. With better resolution you may be able to see where exactly the knock is occurring and what is happening.

Too little timing causes knock just like too much timing. Your timing maps need to have smooth transitions ideally with no more than 3 degrees difference during spool up. Can you post up your timing map instead of the fuel map?

You need to inspect everything in the engine bay and along the rest of the exhaust looking for anything and everything that may possibly rattle. Loose and rattling parts will cause the car to pick up noise and interpret it as knock.

I would also recommend putting your mods in the first post instead of telling people to look at your sig. Sigs change over time and someone may stumble upon this thread and you no longer have the same mods or deleted the sig.

  • I do log those things but it seems like it tries to log everything for some reason, I just edited the file to see what I needed, I deleted tps but I will have a better log tonight for yall to view
  • The 3 degrees timing rule I did follow through out the boost portion of the map
  • I will keep that in mind thank you
