Lean = High EGT's... I don't have an egt gauge, and I don't plan on burning a hole in the top of my piston or burning an exhaust valve because of heat. But at 12.0-1 AFR I do not knock, even with 16* Total Timing at peak torque and a load value of 2.44 g/rev... on stock turbo and intercooler.... According to the spreadsheet with everything scaled (scaled against me, 10 correction and 0 weight added) it produced 261ft-tq at 3850rpms.. Thats pretty damn good considering I was around 240fttq with the exact settings...
have you modified your knock correction RPM and load ranges to suit this new setup? The stock map is very deaf in the upper RPM ranges and at load values above 2.1. You might "widen" your ranges and see if you pick up new knock.
If I were to try those settings on our 91 octane fuel, I'd get severe knock. Probably IAM dropping like a rock. I have to run 13-14 degrees timing at peak torque and AFR of no richer than 11:1. I have the best luck running 91 octane in the mid 10s at redline.
