[QUOTE="2000wa250, post: 1006353, member: 3399"] As far as the stock table, its not that bad. However, if you take a stock table and multiply it across the board by a given number (easiest way to increase or decrease a map by a %) you are going to enhance any differences. Remember when you multiply it by say 1.15 to increase the map by 15%, the differences will be larger by that same factor. That's where going back through and smoothing everything out by hand comes into play. As far as why the stock map looks the way it does, I couldnt tell ya. All I know is that too little timing will create a slow, unresponsive, smokey, hot, turd. We all know that too much timing is liable to land a rod in the hood of that ricer you are trying to pass. Heres my thoughts on you BASE SOI map. [ATTACH=full]136722[/ATTACH] While I'm sure it runs well enough, I would bet that you could decrease temps, increase power/responsiveness, and probably have a better running truck if you make some changes to it. Oh, and from personal experience, if you are seeing ANY lack of power or strange characteristics when your EOT comes into the operating range, thats when you go back to that timing adder (EOT vs RPM) and bring it closer to 0 if not set at 0 in the range where you are experiencing the issues. I guess you could say I follow along the same train of thought as Charles. The less CRAP adding, modifying, or otherwise effing with my BASE tables, the better. In my experience, SIMPLE is reliable is SAFE is enjoyable! [/QUOTE]
