Anyone play with the ignition auto tuning yet?
#2
I did for a tiny bit before the engine blew. With both fuel and spark autotunes on the car would be weird as hell, idle would be all sorts of crazy. With this engine I have a super solid ignition map and won't even bother touching it without det cans. Even then I'll tune it myself.
As cool as spark autotune sounds, I just don't trust it anymore til someone proves otherwise.

The careful thing with autotuning is being responsible with it. It does mess around with idle because its constantly varying the ignition timing to optimize the torque. Tuning cruise with it though would be a really good use for it. MAP, TPS, and other variables are fairly steady so i think you would get excellent results.

I can't seem to find a column "advance metric" in the datalog ... ?:
Time (s)
RPM
MAP (kPa)
TPS (%)
MAT (°C)
WT (°C)
AuxT (°C)
AFR
Knock
Idle
MVSS
SVSS
Batt (V)
Trim (%)
Inj (ms)
Ign (°)
Wastegate (%)
Pump
Gear
VVT1 (°)
VVT1Set
VVT1Duty
VVT2 (°)

Could you try a quick datalog and see if you get a column called "advance metric" or "advance" ?
You can begin tuning off boost rows by first retarding your whole map by 2*, running "always sense torque", set ignition to "open loop", and then reading the datalogs, and manually advancing only off-boost cells, one degree at a time. Safe!!!
