hi all I wanted to have someone here review my current tune. I've taken feedback from a previous post to see what I can do and I think I've made the proper changes and did a lot of hand smoothing / tuning on the VE table to reach targets. It hits targets for the most part some of the upper ranges could use some tuning. I go racing on Saturday so I just wanted someone to take a look and make sure I'm not crazy. Car runs amazing in this current format. I'm open to any changes though. also I am running 93 octane.
Current mods :
BMM ECU, Supermiata Intake, Raceland Headers, Racing Beat Midpipe / Power Pulse Muffler, Cat Delete.

Thanks in Advance.

That timing table is aggressive, but if base timing is spot on, shouldn't grenade your engine on 93. For a track car without knock control I would pull 2° 60 kpa +

So, I do have knock control installed. I did drop the whole map by -3 degrees across the board and got it to knock so, I was able to make the curve properly. is it still spicy if the car is N/A and not boosted ? how did everything else look for the most part ? just trying to get second opinions on my street tune before I go racing Saturday.

Yes, way to spicy in the midrange. This was my stock NA8 with I/H/E spark table tuned on 98+ (us 93) octane.

with that timing map you will hear knock getting going off idle for sure, more timing is not more power.
Here is my timing map when my car was not turbo, I ran that for 3 years
1997 1.8l stock

okay, looking at these tables I may be a little spicy. I will adjust accordingly thank you all for helping me not blow up a motor.

you mention you were "stock" did you have other mods like I/E ? and was this dyno tuned ?
