------------Stock----Last tested----New untested
205°------- .41 ------- .35 ------------- .34
234°------- .38 ------- .30 ------------- .29
264°+ ---- .34 ------- .26 ------------- .25
Here's my table, seems to work well on my '09

What am I doing wrong?
Did you hit Ctrl-E in the PV Log Tuner software to turn on HD-CAN mode?

If you're looking at the log and seeing values (VE and New VE), it would seem you are collecting information OK. But, if log tuner is not picking it up, it's ignoring the data for some reason. I'd check the log tuner options and see if something there is limiting what it is using from your logs. (temp, hit count, etc...). Also, your value file does include VE front/rear, AFR, and spark front/rear?

This was it. I was able to use two log runs from today successfully. We are making progress now. Thanks for the help.

Some of the new 2012's have a CAN bus that the ECM communicates on. I think the crtl-E just toggles it into a mode to read the information properly.

Jamie told me there were some calibration additions but nothing major to his knowledge. I didn't bother upgrading, but I did update PV Tune to 1.2.0.0. The first thing I noticed was that the color-coding option no longer works. It's in Options but does nothing. I find the black on red cell color is difficult to read and suggested that they offer a no-color option (black on white only), which works best for me.

You took out quite a bit above 118°. The untested settings I posted Monday almost got rid of the pop, so I went -.01 again before I saw your table. If that doesn't get rid of the pop I'll just set it like you and that should take care of it.

Can anyone help with this relatively simple question? I don't see any knock control feature in the tune edit menu on the PV, so any direction on how to make this change to a map without the use of a laptop would be appreciated. Thanks
Does anybody have any insight on this early question about turning Knock Control ON/OFF from the PV itself?

Default Spark hit count exactly same for both cyl?

Big learning curve on efi for me. I used the pv logging file, so I dont have the wrong signals. But, I got the exact same spark hit count for both cyl. The actual spark knock numbers were higher for the rear cyl. Somebody please explain this. Thanks, Kranky.
