I put my PTE 550s in a few weeks back and now just started to really trying to tune them with my safc. so heres the first log at 15psi.

Third gear pull started at about 25k.

Well from the timing values gradually going up it doesnt look like you are knocking anywhere which is good. Imo the timing looks a bit high but you are getting away with it now. Granted you have a safc so there isnt anyway to change your timing. Do you have a wideband? What is your afr?

Looks good all in all. You're not knocking. Up the boost a bit at a time. Make sure the afr stays around 11.0 assuming you are on pump gas. Then go from there. If you see the timing drop from the values you have now then there is some knock and you need to back of the boost or adjust the afr.
 
I dont have a wide band yet so I dont know the afrs. So do you think I could lean it out a tad based on the log or should I just leave it alone and mess with the boost and see what canges? With the same settings should I log the o2 voltage to some what see what the afr are?
 
I am not going to tell you to tune off of the stock narrowband o2 sensor, so take this with a grain of salt. At this point you dont have a wideband so you dont have any inkling what the afr is. I cant tell you to lean it out at this point either because I have no idea where the afr is at.

So; if I were in your boat, I would log the narrowband voltage and see where it is at. In my experience if your gas afr is around 11.0 then your stock narrowband sensor should read some where around .94-.96. If its below that then richen it up. If its higher than that, lean it out a tad. Since your timing values didnt drop any, you are probably somewhere near where you need to be or richer. This is assuming you have a good working o2 sensor as well. Once you get the voltage in good order then proceed to up the boost a bit at a time.
