Here is one of my first logs of my car...Im still pretty new to tuning, and need some advice. What should I be looking for, what certain things should be at, and what should change/ what's wrong with this log now. Advise would be greatly appreciated!

You have V2 and there's a user with your same user name on the Link forums so I'm going to assume you have a legit copy.

Everything looks alright--that amount of knock is for the most part negligible, especially since you're already pulling 3 degrees of timing there. Airflow looks healthy. Only issue I see is that BoostEst is not 25 psi at 5500 RPM. Are you holding 25 psi to redline or is there significant dropoff?

Your 70-90 mph time is also much slower than I'd expect (3.4 seconds), but that's most likely due to the low timing you're running. I'd recommend verifying that your fuel trims are in check, followed by your TPS, then picking up a wideband and a MAP sensor next.

The boost spikes to about 26-27psi, then drops to about 22-23, depending on the gear tho....

I do have a wideband which is reading around 10.8-11.0.

Anything I should change?
 
The only thing you can really do now is to add a little timing back in and monitor knock closely. Your 70-90 time is really really slow for how much air you're moving, especially if you've got it somewhat tuned.
 
Do you have a front mount? I would venture to say that you'd probably make more power with less psi and more timing. At 25psi, that tiny turbo is blow HOTT air. Turn the boost down to 20psi, hell even 18 or 19, and try to shoot for 19 to 20 degrees of timing by redline.
 
I should probably say I had a total of 3 people in the car while this log was taken, which would probably be the reason why the 70-90 time is so slow. Ill do another log with just me in the car, and post it up. And yes, I do have a FMIC. All mods are in my profile.

Add cams, drop boost to 21-22 psi, increase timing to 17* and you'll probably pull 350 h.p. at the crank. Otherwise an excellent log. Those 2nd gear airflow numbers are the highest I've seen for a T28, nice job:thumb:
 
Yea, the timing #'s look a little low. Also what was the ambient temperature when teh log was taken?

I run a lock of 20* timing on pump gas at 19 PSI and although i don't ahve a knock sensor i get no signs of knock or anything audible. The reason i bring this up is you can definately make better power with a little less boost and more timing. What kind of gas were you running?

Just in case a newbie reads this....this is not what most people do, and the majority of people would not recommend doing this.
