It's not knocking at all, however it is on the threshold of where it will begin displaying knock. That's why it is at that level marshall. I might be able to pull a few % or add a few * down low, but really I just didn't have enough dyno time to try that out.
on a 91 talon tsi awd. using DSMLink, RC 1000cc, Custom innovative turbo w/ huge ass wheels, 24x12x4 fmic, custom 3" downpipe, 2g mas conversion, greddy type s bov, turbonetics boost controller, FP 3x cams, tial wg, act 2600, walbro 255. not trying to thred jack but showing DSM love. keep them running and its a great car.

As Chris said, unfortunately we spent a little too much time debating options and over-analyzing the charts instead of just click click and another pull. In retrospect I believe with a little better time management and getting in a couple more pulls we might have been able to get a little better midrange out of it. Overall the numbers came out about what i expected, and I was pretty pleased with what we accomplished. 436 is actually pretty good considering the mods, most people are in the 400-430 range with that setup. The torque curve is strange for a DSM but It maintains a nice plataue top end, I believe that is in the cams.
This car is a beast on the street, the way that turbo hits in 2nd gear is a neck snapper.
Good job with the car though chris, nice to see some numbers for the setup, and a confirmation that it's doing what it should. I'd like to believe my input helped with the tune, but you seemed on the right track to begin with and did a good job, the computer was in your hands so i won't claim any credit
To the fools saying he should tune for 12.5:1.. haha... get real.. put down the magazines and go do that to your own car and get back to me with what happens.

read the numbers in the bottom green we put down 506hp with 430lbs pegging out the autometer gauge past 30psi was crazy at that. rebuilding the top end for a higher redline and seeing how far we can push before something breaks. iam trying to come back to virginia but i keep hearing its getting worse to live there.

, probably 33ish i'd guess? looks like a super60 or 60-1 with a good flowing exhaust combination (P-trim T4 maybe?) based off the graphI see no relevence really to the thread but
to you anyways for good numbers in a DSM, haha
