    Timing question

    New to HPtuners and am messing around with my 06 suburban 5.3 trying to get the feel for this and have noticed on a particular log at 100% throttle 4800rpm at 0.60G air mass it was running 29 degrees of timing. According to the high octane timing table it's set to be 21 degrees. This seems to be a fairly constant occurrence throughout my logs. I understand various things will retard the timing but can somebody explain what actually causes it to advance 38% over what the table is set to. The attached log is what I was looking at and the time of this particular instance is 6:26:21.806.

    Look at the Spark Correction AFR Correction table. It adds timing on those calibrations.

    So if I'm looking at this right the AFR correction table adds timing according to the AFR multiplier in the PE table correct?

    Most just zero that table out and control the timing in the main table. Less variables to deal with.

    Makes a lot of sense. Thanks for your help.
