Ok I got my datalogger bout a month ago and I have messed with it alittle bit but at the moment I don't have anything to tune with. Here is a 3rd gear pull but I let off at the end cuz i just took it and it was at night. Just something to base stuff off of. Anyways I was wondering if anyone out there has any advice for me. I know that I need to clean out my intercooler I'm sure it is coated in oil so maybe that will help me out alittle bit. Also I think my TPS is only 97 because my floor mat was underneat the pedal between the stopper and the pedal LOL. It looks like I'm running rich from what I can tell from my o2s but I'm not positive. Any help at all would be appreciated :thumb: mods are in profile, thanks alot :D

few questions, i looked and i dont see any bigger injectors and no fuel tuning. so your running off stock ecu im guessing with no piggy back. if your running to much boost u could be getting more knock, bad gas...thier are lots of variables.

how much boost are u running?
What octane gas are u running?
you cant see knock with pocketlogger in a 2g which is most likely causing lower timing advance.
 
Looks like you're knocking between 2272 and 3432rpms, and again between 4620 and 5084. And besides at 1884 (.69) and 5980 (.79) your O2's are really high.
 
Thanks for the replies, I am running 15 psi on 91 octane its all I can get around here :cry: . I kept gettin a fuel trim bank 1 CEL but I put in a o2 sensor and I that solved that problem but I still feel like im running Rich because the car smells like gas, and I still have the cat on so it's not from a lack of cat. I know that the 2gs cant see knock without dsmlink but my dip in timing is knock isnt it? forgive me if I'm wrong im a tuning newb :shhh: . I plan on gettin a SAFC within the next month or so with my tax return.
 
I will try and get some more runs in tonight after I get off work and see if any of this is different. I'm going to turn down the boost to about 13 psi and see if that helps out any. What is the 02 range that your car should be showing?
 
Ok I did another run at 15psi before work and right before I did the run I had a PO170 (fuel trim bank 1 malf), I cleared that and then did the run. I am running REALLY rich :notgood: and it is driving me crazy, I'm gettin alot of knock from what I can tell from the timing being pulled and being so crazy. I know it isnt an o2 sensor because I just replaced that thinking it would solve the problem but it didnt. Anywayz here is the new log, thanks

Yea plugs and wires are brand new bout a few monthes old. Also I'm pretty sure the reason it isnt at 100% is that my floormat goes in between the pedal and the floor and goes over the floor stopper. I am going to test for boost leaks this week, someone stole my boost leak tester :mad: so I gotta make a new one. I keep throwing the PO170 code (fuel trim bank 1) so I'm pretty sure this has something to do with it. I just replaced the 02 sensor so it isnt that. im stuck :cry:
 
Ok I did some stuff and ran a new log today its ALITTLE better but still not what im wanting :notgood: . Anywayz on this fuelpump I rewired the fuelpump and turned the boost down to 12 psi to see if that helped any. I did a boost leak test and the only leak I could find was one SOMEWHERE around the throttle body area I couldnt pin point it exactly. Any help would be appreciated, also with this little amount of knock is it gonna kill my engine? I rarely get into the boost lately I drive like a granny to save gas LOL
