Hi,
I did some data logging on my 2006 chrysler 300c 5.7 hemi on my Diabosport Intune. Only mods I have are a custom exhaust without muffler and K&N Filter in the factory air box. I have the DiabloSport Tune loaded and Im running 93 octane gas....MDS off. I have heard allot said about short term and long term Knock retard along with fuel/air mix, WOT and spark timing. I have included 2 recorded data files from the intune. The first is a rolling 40mph to WOT and #2 is from low mph to WOT. Do the figures look like my Knock retard at WOT is advancing and I need spark or fuel adjustment. The highest ST retard was 2.00 and LT retard was 3.00. I ran this setup with no a/c on esp enabled.
Do I Increase Fuel or Spark???
I appreciate any help.
Thanks
Eddie

if the knock occurs during the shifts and then drops back, thats fine.

Re: Help with timing and fuel showing Knock Retard
I see that my AFR is running at 14.71 on normal driving and only drops to 12.72 on WOT. Should it be lower. I have read that 11.73 was like a great target for AFR. The diablo manual says if knock retard is 5.00 or below to decrease spark timing along the scale by .5. But if im running rich should I just lean it out across the board. I am going to get a custom tune soon from hemifever. But like to know whats going on and understand as much as possible on my vehicle. Thanks for the help.

Re: Help with timing and fuel showing Knock Retard
I am also running the regular diablo tune not the 93 octane diablo tune. Which is better and should I change it.
Re: Help with timing and fuel showing Knock Retard
Its the same tune Diablo Tune is the 93 tune. If you're running 93 octane its fine. If you're running lower, use the 91 tune.
