When your are mapping ignition of boost, are you then mapping for best torque? I think you said sometime that adding ignition after best tourqe may result in less?
Hopefully this was covered in the last reply

The KnockLink, or whatever the link knocksensor is named, is it any good??
A det can in its most basic form is a pair of ear defenders with some 5mm bore rubber tube connected, going out of teh window and then connected to some microbore copper tube thats bolted to teh engine.
Our system goes one step further:
Its a set of electronic headphones with 4 seperate microphones and a 4channel swicthbox so i can listen to different areas of teh engine if im in doubt as to what im hearing on one sensor.
You can see the sensors hooked up in this pic:
And the cans and switchbox are just visible on teh dash in this pic:
Knocklink etc are quite usefull once youve got them set for the engine its supposed to monitor, but ive found it next to useless for transferring from car to car, as its so hard to setup
