Thanks guys!

Here's two logs on I did once it cooled down. Map 2, 91oct, 5400ft altitude. My AFR's seem to be a little rich? You guys notice anything to tweak for Map 6?

Looks ok, ECU is not letting the engine make much power in the first log. Try a log in 4th with your shorter gearing for more load, and you should consider running E-blend for a stronger map6.

@shovelhd Golf r adjusts throttle to control torque, look at pedal.

Thanks for the quick response! I've been mixing Chevron, Shell, and 76, but I guess I'll have to drop Chevron from that list.
I haven't done any E85 mix before so before doing some research I thought I'd increase the gas quality by putting in some 100 oct racing fuel (~4.8 gallons).

Here are a few pulls with 100mix @ Map 2:

https://datazap.me/u/davidhahn/log-1596405078?log=0&data=1-4

This is Map 1 logging pre-100 mix

EDIT:
My logs seem to be all over the place... I'll try to do a clean pull later today.
Looks better but IATs is killing timing advance and it got pretty rich with the race fuel blend, trims got fairly low to and it must be costly so just blend with E85.

Thanks -- as always, really appreciate your response! I have BMS intercooler that's going to be installed soon so hopefully that'll help.

Yeah I can't keep pouring money into 100 oct fuel so I'll definitely do some research around my area for E85. I'll just run my tank empty, start fresh, and go from there.
For the current tank, since it's running rich, should I be pulling back on the fuel bias? or FOL? And would that be the case for E85 as well? Sorry in advance if these are stupid questions -- pretty new to this :D

No. It's running rich because IATs. Get IATs down.
Thanks for chiming in! I went back and looked but my IAT seems way too high even for stock IC... I was cursing for a good time and I remember the ambient temp being high 70’s...

I’ll log again after the new IC is installed

Recently started blending Ethanol to combat this summer heat. Everything I've read said to up FOL to 60 on E but I felt like I was getting some weird AFR readings so I backed it down to 55. I think the trims look good but AFR seems a little lean to me. Nothing crazy and I know the JB4 can only do so much in regards to the ECU targets but always can use another opinion. How does everything look? Should I go back to 60?

Your trims look fine so I wouldn't worry about the AFRs. They don't look dangerously high. The ECU is doing what the ECU wants to do in terms of fuel. One of your E27 logs shows AFRs in the 11s, so your ECU is able to do it if it wants to.

Check to make sure all your fuel bias is set to 100. Also, when you log, put your pedal all the way down and keep it there. Log 3rd gear from 2500 all the way to 6500 and shift, then keep the pedal down and log into 4th gear.

Its getting hot, do you have access to E85?

Thanks for the tips. I do not have access to E85. I'll do a better run tomorrow when I have more space to rev it out and I'll set the fuel bias. Appreciate it.

Edit: Checked, all fuel bias is set to 100.
