There is an issue somewhere in the tuning because Uprev can advance it to 32 at high load/RPM

This for me? My tuner didnt say he couldnt set the timing higher, he said it wouldnt take it. The ecu and or uprev wont let him do ****. And if my post on why e85 lost power over 93 makes sense to anyone else besides me than thats why. 28* just isnt enough nor good enough to preignite the mix soon enough. Im testing the dyno and tuner again real soon going back to 93 and going back to 2.5" CAI. Ill find my power loss if it kills me.
