AEM Is this a decent timing map?

[jlucas05]

Hey folks,

I have a built 2.0 6 bolt with an fp red on 93/meth above 16psi, how does this timing map look? Is it a conservative map or aggressive?

thank you

I would say it's on the aggressive side but if you're not knocking roll with it.

woo thats a lot, like 10 deg to much. my meth doesent get me but one or two more degrees more timing. i run 16* on 18 psi and thats all i could get. And you have no timing in it for cruising. I wouldnt pay for that.

I'm trying to figure out how to log knock in aem, it was the tune that was already on the car. From what I was reading 16-18° is pretty conservative up top, is that right?

I was worried about that.

everything varies between each setup, but i would say boost only pump gas usually around 12-14 * up top. meth can get you 1-2 more. cruising you want to be around 33-35.

my numbers are based off a 16g and hx35 cars ive tuned, your red would probabaly require less timing if you were to turn the boost up higher

Thank you, that is good to know. I think I have figured out how to log knock, once the weather here clears up(I'm in Columbia, SC and we're having widespread flooding) I'll try and log some pulls.

It has been crazy!! I've never seen anything like this in my life, my wife and I have been very fortunate to live where we are. If you go 5 minutes in any direction it's really bad! Thank you sir I sure will, I am looking to do a remote tune on the car, but I've been out of the DSM game for a while now. I was thinking about TSComp, I don't see where many DSM folks use him though, but he has rave reviews from any and everyone that I've read had tune their car! The car has no IACV which I am planning to put one in, and on cold start idles very inconsistent.
