Just got back. Car felt fine to me, mid ride I was checking turbo pressure and was hitting peak consistently when I wanted it to instead of being stuck at 15.


Went over the datalog and checked TC pressure vs TC target, values were very close and were definitely normal.

I did notice that my knock control moved between 6 and 6.3. Could this be due to about a quarter of my tank being on 89 octane while the rest is 93?

Also will be adding my car to the tuning thread finally lol
Great to hear.

For sure on the gas. A full tank of 93 will stabilize knock control. Just keep in mind that knock control will go up after 5200 rpm. That's normal on a non-Si. Enjoy the tune.

Thanks for the help. Once I run this tank of gas down I'll fill it up fully with 93 and probably make a new post in the tuning thread just so that you have the data/people can find the info about 93 octane making a difference.
