On the subject of timing though. When mine did make that initial 265rwkw (355rwhp), tuner said he had a very hard time going past 13* before it would start pinging horribly, I attribute it to being a very hot day (something like 37c/98f at the back of the shop), and the W2A being badly heatsoaked at the end of some 20+ dyno runs and the tuner refusing to listen to me to let it cool down. Very interesting you were at 25* with E85... how much are you on 93?
My w2a set up didn't drop below 40 degrees c here in uk no matter how cold it was

Now with a2a my Temps are sat at around 7 degrees c above abient it's amazing
I can get out after a hard drive and stick my hand on the charge pipe and manifold and they are cold
It is like 3 degrees here at the moment but still super impressed
