I don't think it's a case of "bad data" (but not disregarding your feedback) as when the logs show 0 or almost 0 timing the car takes seemingly twice as long to rev from 3k to 7k than it does when the logs show good timing, and I can feel it. I was actually surprised at how quickly it rev'd the first time I tested the PS2 with good boost and timing. With no timing, it's very sluggish. I've never been happy with the support from BMS on the N54tech site.

I could be "worried over nothing" if the logs look like there's no issue preventing boost from hitting the target. I suppose I could raise target to 17.5 or 18 where I think it should be at 17 now and see what happens. I do want to see what the timing looks like at 18 psi as I think I have enough octane to support 17 psi right now.


And YES I will be going to a stand alone tune hopefully in the next month or 2. Hopefully by the end of this month I'll get the flywheel installed and that should be it for the mods I have planned for the near future. I have a feeling the PS2 is going to make auto-cross a little more challenging which is why I like the JB4 where I can limit boost in the first 3 gears. When I get a tune I suppose I could flash a "stock" tune for a race weekend and flash back to the custom tune after the race, unless I can get a tuner to make 2 tunes.
