I'm not expert by any means, just sharing what I do and look for.
- Make sure you're in DSC Off mode. Car might limit power and do some other foolery that will make the logs wonky in other modes
- Do a 4th gear pull on the highway from ~3000rpm to redline
- Check for misfires
- Check for knocks. 1-2 random knocks per pull is okay. Some more knocks may be okay too, if they were event based and not random. For example, sometimes lifting the throttle from 100% to 0% can cause a knock. I haven't seen anything like this in my car, but stuff like that can be normal. Like there could be something you're doing that is tripping the knock sensor.
- Make sure your HPFP is hitting target levels and not dropping off.
- Make sure timing is fairly consistent between all cylinders. Some deviation is okay.
- Look at other peoples logs and see how they compare to your own.
I've been learning a little about how to read boost, AFR, WGDC, MAF, and MAP, but don't understand enough to explain any of that yet.
