I was bored and found this online virtualdyno.net lol , seems like kinda close lol. log 21 is stock map, and log 19 was a 17 PSI map.
Wow that got me interested, I was skeptical but upon researching it, that software is surprisingly accurate, within 3%+/-.
It all depends on the road conditions from what I’ve read... so if you always log at the same spot it may be helpful. I’d be curious to see someone on here whose actually had their car on a dyno to stick a log in there to see how it compares!

The timing pull is ign1. That's your actual advance. In map 4 you had as much as 16 degrees. In map 6 it's dropping off at the top end, one degree of timing will sometimes be worth more than a psi of boost. Also look at ign1 through the entire range and compare to map4. Wherever you see it drop more than 2 degrees from map 4, your boost need to be lowered at that point. There is a nanny on the JB4 that prevents you from going more than +10 psi. That's what you are experiencing. Based on your logs though, you don't need to be that high. You can't always go for boost, you really have to watch the timing as well. To give you an idea, I have the gutted cat and have ran a 3" downpipe. My max on those is around 19 psi peak tapering get to around 14 at 6,000. Those are what I actually hit. Not the target. On the stock downpipe I was around 16.5-17 max and around 12 at 6,000. I will see as high as 18.5 degrees advance with cool IAT. When it's warmer, I'm still getting 15-16 degrees by 6,000.

Which value are you looking at that shows the big timing trop? ign_1?

Your map 6 is no good because you're not 100 on the pedal. Any pedal fluctuations will cause the timing to change a bunch. That's the only way to get true comparisons of the map 4 timing and map 6. IAT also need to be very close on both.

whats the diff between pedal and throttle?
also, there's a very small amount of pedal variability on this one - https://datazap.me/u/mattkime/map-6?log=1&data=1-4-5-9

Did you win? Didn't seem like a very even test lol

Pedal is the pedal, but throttle is the actual valve in the intake that controls how much air the engine gets. With a cable throttle they are always the same, but we have a computer controlled throttle so they can be different.

So is there a different result between throttle at 100 and pedal at 90 and throttle at 100 and pedal at 100?

So our throttle response is not a 1:1 ratio like a cable?

No. I think throttle can be 100% at like 85% pedal. But the ecu will change timing on the pedal. It knows your lifting. I've seen it affect lots of logs. Ask George
