Happen to see a couple dyno charts posted, I'm wondering if these dips at right before 3k and right before 4k are from the timing drop I'm talking about. It's hard to find dyno charts where they've started below 3k. I guess people don't realize where 90% of your driving rpm's are if you drive on the street, which 90% of these cars are. One of the vendors, who shall remain nameless, posts charts that START at 5000 RPM!!! I don't think I'd be too proud of a powerband that's only 2000 rpm wide.
Anyway, Chris or Bill, have you guys had a chance to look at any of this? Are there any others out there that have experimented with the new Load Damping tables? Results?
This one shows a flat spot right were the timing drops, torque should be climbing there, not going flat or dropping...

This one show a torque flat spot right before 4k, where it will also get a timing drop...

Obviously we're not looking at these tunes or logs, so these flat spots could also be caused by uneven boost control, but I've seen many charts that have these similar flat spots or drops at the same rpm's. I know from tons of logging on many cars that the timing does dump at those spots. These motors ARE capable of good torque below 3k rpm, and unless your car is a dedicated track car, that's where you need it.
