Hi every one. I have a 2015 pro with the older injector and piggy pack set up. I just got my clutching and fuel dialed in. But at WOT I'm detonating. tried adding a little more fuel just in case and 110 race fuel. I'm mixed at about 50/50 between 110 and 91. Is there a way to maybe retard my timing a little? or is there something else I'm missing.

(Used second hand kit at 5psi)

It's hard to tell on rpm because det happens and shuts me down. But as far as I can tell. I'm between 82-8500rmp. Stock spring 140/330 and 78grm weights. And 5lbs of boost on the gauge. Afr is at 11.5wot 12 Middle and 14.5 at idle.

Yeah well they can hit rev limiter and it's hard to see on gauge
And that acts just like det
Maybe try a little more weight and see if that does the trick
If you're seeing 8500 on the guage
That makes my suspicious about rev limiter kicking in

Okay so I had it out on a deep day. With a little more clutching I'm at 8,000rpm. Changed my tune a little. Low rpm, I'm good. Flat spot at mid but when I can get it to open up it screams. But if I tune it so mid runs good I get the det code. Also the flat spot at mid makes it un rideable. Can post video some where.

All ready said that. But 5lbs of boost. 11.5wot 12.5mid and 14.5 idle.
I think it's a timing thing. I know on newer kits they have a timing key that like takes out 3° at high rpm.

Green. 15
Yellow 12
Red 11.5
Green Blue 13
Yellow Blue 12.5
Red Blue 12.

I had the red kick in sooner due to max boost before the flue would hit and it would detonate. With where it is I get fuel then boost and it runs good at the top rpm if I have a good load. (powder, hill climbing) if I'm on the trail it detonates. Also mid throttle is laggy if not unusable. But if I feather the throttle or ease into it I can get to the higher rpm and get the turbo to really spool up and get the power. And I mean POWER. But if I let off and drop back into the mid rpms it stutters and falls on its face. Usually sending me off the front... I'll post a quick video at 5k ft.

another reminder that running a boost gauge is a handy tool
