Log Review for BM3 OTS STG2 93Octane V5.7 - Need Your Input & Advice

Hi,

Long story short, I had had crap gas situation from local shell V-Power over 2 years(Realized after logged) and have switched the gas station over Costco, the car has been running more smooth over 2 months. I have been curious about the result and I did log in this morning, looks my HPFP keeps up as target and hit the target boost which I always had the crash situation before . But I believe I'm missing something for the entire log, so looking forward to having your opinion and advice because I'm thinking if I should go with custom tune(Jordan Tune in US) for the better performance.

Appreciate all your help and advice. BTW, I'm seeing RPM jitters on the log. Is that my intake issue? Or it's normal?

Mods:

- DV+
- FTP Charge, Boost, inlet Pipes
- Fabspeed Catted DP
- CTS Intake
- CSF IC
- BM3 v5.7 STG2 OTS 93 AGG map
- 93 Octane Pump Gas (Costco)

Ignition timing during your 3-4 pull looks everywhere....to my untrained eye.

How is yours revving to 6868? That seems a bit high for N55. I thought rev limiter was set around 6650.

3rd gear looks fine, but in 4th it struggles a bit to advance timing.

Might not hurt, I don't think you need very much, few ounces of Boostane or Torco would clean it up.

Anytime I’ve used booster to get 96+ octane, it’s been a pretty noticeable impact.

I've seen on my logs even with octane booster and this log shows the same that you'll get a 1 time knock event (not super knock) always in 4th gear. Is it normal to have a knock as timing is advancing? should you only be concerned with super knock?
