I logged a third gear pull today and thought my duty cycle looked a bit jumpy up top. Anyone think I should be concerned, or is this normal when the D/C is above 100%?
Yes, I know I'm pushing my injectors hard :shhh:

This is at 15 psi, the rest of my mods are in my profile.

you're running way too rich. take out some fuel after 3k until you start knocking. Your o2 volts are too high. even tho, tuning by o2 volts isn't the best idea, but it can give you a good idea that you're a tad bit rich. the reason why there is no knock, is because you are rich. and timing seems to be a bit high. see if by leaning it out will take some timing back. 24* is too much for a 1g, you wanna see about 18-20*. sweet spot on my car for o2 volts seems to be .78 or .80. Seems lean to most, but it doesn't knock. :dsm:
 
Thanks for the input everyone :thumb:

I currently don't have any tuning devices, except for an AFPR to turn down the base fuel pressure after I installed the 255HP. This is on a stock unhacked MAS.

The interface is the Log Viewer that came with my PocketLogger, I'm very happy with it!

I'm sticking with the stock 450's until I can pick up a DSMLink and some 660's, that's why I haven't bought any tuning devices yet.
I guess now that I think about it it doesn't really matter if the duty cycle is jumpy above 100% since the injectors are static at that point anyway, right?

scottsee> I noticed that also about the timing, but I think I've read somewhere that the stock ECU does that after 6000 RPMS.
