Turbuburick thanks for looking,in file 5 I saw up to 18.9lbs of boost, I am running 93oct,don't know why I am not getting any knock retard(I hope my knock sensor is working properly).Last year with my stock turbo I would get knock retard at 17-18lbs of boost.With all the reading I do,with my setup,I thought that
it wasn't possible to run over 17lbs of boost without having some kind of knock reatard.Your help is great appreciated.Thanks,ikle.
 
Turboburick also if my boost levels are fine should I start pulling fuel,if so how much at a time should I pull.If I am correct the WBO2's should be between 11.50-11.80 for 93oct.This is not only my first Buick,but also my first experience with tuning.Thanks for your help,ikle.
 
How much boost you can run will vary. Allot of different things can effect this.. Fuel, weather, tune etc. Turbodave runs 20psi on 93oct. :eek:

Honestly your tune is looking pretty darn good. You can prolly go leaner but your safe right now.

All you need now is a alky kit. ;)

Not true. You'll notice you have 18* of timing at WOT (which helps a lot), and you also have a more efficient turbo which isn't heating the air quite so badly at the same boost level.

I'm easilly able to run 20+ # of boost on straight 93 octane gas.

BTW nice looking files! A little on the fat side but not bad.

Here's an example of mine:
