I need to see some Borderline spark tables. I have run what I consider to be conservative timing, but I can't seem to be able to get rid of this detonation issue I am having. So, before I go crazy looking for something not obvious, I would like to confirm that all the obvious stuff looks right.
All indicators (i.e. AFR,spark plugs, etc.) tell me that everything is in normal operating parameters, yet I still get knock. So all I can think of is that my timing may be too aggressive. This is not the first vehicle I have tuned so I have experience with what a table should look like. I have even gone as far as comparing it to factory ford tables (i.e. 03-04 cobra/gt-500). However, those are different engines and who know, maybe these 2.3's like way different numbers.
I am only running 10lbs of boost right now which shouldn't be giving me any problems. I tend to get detonation at about the medium high load level.... sorry I don't have the actual load percentage that it usually happens at.
So if a few guys could post up a screen shot of there borderline spark table for me as a reference, I would really appreciate it. Please only post pics of known good tables used with 93 octane or less.
