    2003 Mach1 Procharger Help

    I'm trying to tune a 2003 mach 1 with a Procharger, should be easy enough. However, the scanner is practically useless. I have no real channels, including one of the most important knock retard. It constantly freezes up, shuts down and does anything it wants. On the Programming side of things, I have had zero issues. These are all things I have heard about and knew could be an issue. With HPT being my go to for everything now days, I decided to give it a try. I ordered up a new MPVI3, because it said EEC support. I figured the newer the better, well it's even worse. Back in the day I used SCT and have tuned many 4v supercharged engines but it has been a few years since the last time I tuned one. I just dusted off the old laptop with my SCT stuff just so I could take a good look at some other combinations I did and wouldn't you know it, I can't find my dongle. So my real problem is, I don't feel comfortable just going at it on the dyno without monitoring knock retard. I can't remember for the life of me what a stock mach 1 with a Procharger on 93 is safe at. I'm currently at 12 degrees and 10lbs at 6500. Would someone mind telling me what they feel is a safe limit.

    Thank You
