I just picked up DSMlink v2 and I have got my o2 values around 11.5-12.0/1 which seems ok, but my timing is very very low in comparison to some of the example logs that I am using as a comparison. To be exact I seem to flatline at about 9degrees @ 3000rpm then the car sputters and knocks like a m#ther f%cker til 5k and I let off in fear of my life! I have read to retard timing in instances of knock but I am really concerned about my internals...any suggestions...please! I don't know if it is wise to retard the timing all across the rpm range.

Incidentally how accurate is this make-shift internal "wideband"? Some tuners I have talked to say because it runs off the stock front 02 sensor that value is essentially useless (it can't even differentiate between 9/1 and 11/1), is this true? (even w/ a brand new o2 sensor) Is it possible to tune without dropping yet more big coin???

Lastly, it may help some of you to know what I am running; I have a HKS external w/g, the spring is "supposedly" set at 15psi but it seems more comfortable around 19psi...yikes! I also have a 20g, Greedy profec B spec "junk" and Denso 660's...but alas no FMIC as of yet. Can somebody out there with the HKS help me out, I am really close to selling this setup and picking up an internally gated turbo???
