I was lucky enough to run several scans of my 2009 C6 before ever touching the motor or tune. I noticed that scan after scan there was what I would consider large amounts of KR (3+ degrees). Now that I have added headers, catless x-pipe, CAI, and large cam (231/243 .617/.624 115+3), I have been street tuning it.
Each day, I record a maximum (not average) KR of less that 1 degree in a few cells at light loads only. Most cells read 0. I had the policy of no matter how small the KR, I would reduce timing in that cell. Day after day, I find myself reducing about 1/2 degree of timing from cells around my highway cruise RPM/MAP. The next day, I read the same KR in that cell as before I pulled timing. I seem to get no more or no less KR from day to day, and pulling timing seems to do nothing.
It is not something rattling, as when reviewing the scan, the KR is very rare and not repeating in any way.
So I have come to be concerned about the 0.5 or less degree of KR at light loads only, that I have been seeing until I went back and looked at my all stock motor and tune scans. For some reason, GM allowed for crazy amounts of KR (3+ degrees). Why would they allow this much KR in an all stock C6 when I am sweating over getting rid of that last little 0.5 KR?
I have posted a standard all stock scan, and a very typical current scan for your review.
