Thank you marknett....

It does exit from PC but you can poke around on the Power Vision itself the info is mentioned a few times in this thread but I get it its hard to go through it all.

I have read that the ion anti knock system back off timing even when you cannot hear it. Do you guys think that ill be able to have a better tune with the power vision and datalogging? The only issue I have is that I have WB sensors installed so I wont be able to run closed loop.
will i be able to tune out the pinging even before i hear it?
Thanks
going to the PV would be a plus for you.

2008is the year bike i 'waffle' a bit on becuse of the crappy stock pipe.

its NOT the PV that uses ION sense, it's the ECM in stock for. Add on boxes kill much more than the O2s. Datalogging, looking at spark can really zero in on ping prpblems. If you are thinking of changing, do it npw, because cool spring weather is thw BEST time to START your timing tables, looking for ping. Then do it again in hot summer, but then you dont adjust timing tables, you adjust spark temp correction table. Doing it in this manner gives the best all around timing year around.

When you adjust spark by Air Temp, where is that measurement taken from? It's not the engine or head, maybe intake? I would've thought that 262* is constant whether it is spring or summer? Just trying to learn more.
Thanx...

I would think so. Could the density of the hot summer air play a role?

absolutely and depending on circumstances could affect spark knock

And yes it's at the intake

Some of my friends who rode up to Amarillo for BBQ didn't make it home. When the weather is nice here, it is a beautiful place to live, but things can sure turn nasty in the blink of an eye (snow, hail, tornadoes, sand storm, etc.)

Sorry to temporarily Hi-jack the thread.

I think it is the CHT you use. The IAT will vary with speed.

I asked Temperature Questions but do not recall specifically if that was one of them. We did get a reply from Fuel Moto, Jamie. At work now checking in on my phone this weekend I will go back and see if I can find it.
