    low octane to high octane timing 2016 Z06, tuning tips?

    on older vettes(i had a 2008)it was pretty standard practice to copy high octane timing chart over the low octane timing chart , wondering if it is safe to do on a 2016 Z06? i am not a tuning master by any means ...just trying to improve things a bit safely.... anyone have a good Z06 tune they would like to share,please send it my way...also any other tips would be appreciated thanks in advance

    No do not do that. In non race applications I typically just copy over the difference table from Hi to Low and then account for any modifiers I may have added or removed. Another option I use is to just copy over the Hi table to the Low table, then subtract 8-10 degrees from everywhere. Unless the car is being monitored 100% of the time for race duty, you want the knock learn system to have some recourse to pull timing for low octane or bad gas.
