    I don't know what you mean by "scaled 25%" but that
    alone creeps me out. There's very little about the tune
    that would want a "dumb" across-the-board falsehood
    applied.

    In my experience idle...

    AIR pump is either gone or disabled, right? If still active
    then this is a likely culprit.

    First you need to determine whether knock is steady
    state, or transient. They have different solutions.
    Gross mixture will have some effect on transient ping
    but the right answer is elsewhere.

    Might look first at the desired airflow tables for trans
    in gear, I believe I've seen different R than D/OD fields
    and maybe these have not been properly updated?

    I would not think that trans...

    steady-state / "averaged" tuning methods.

    Misfiring will also produce indicated-lean results on

    there) - along with false trimming even...

    So add every one of the various spark retard components

    case they are negative).

    Do you have the right kind of A/C pressure sensor for
    the PCM? PCM is supposed to guesstimate compressor
    shaft load and work back to an airflow adder based on
    IAT and A/C pressure (and maybe some...

    I always like to ask what makes you think the MAF is
    inaccurate. It's probably more accurate than fuel trims

    Question to me is whether you get more power and more
    efficiency out of a fat mixture and early spark, or lean
    and late. This has a lot to do with combustion particulars

    What about bumping the rev limiter past where you'll set it
    for driving, just for purposes of tuning? You always want
