Follow-up for @Dven11 's car - we did a few more iterations in PMs, here's where we ended up (final pull specifically):

Definitely a bumpy road/traction issues but pulling super strong on this...
I figured as such. Thanks for sharing this info. I know you had checked cylinder fill/load tables of MT vs AT and saw no difference, but have you looked at the feed forward / PID stuff comparing the two yet? Specifically the tables you shared.
Also hopes this shows anyone reading the thread how...
Yes, correct. At full load, the B58 is designed to use wastegate control for keeping boost on target. The throttle only intervenes when the wastegate is not tuned properly to keep boost under target. Its ok to ride the throttle a little, I usually say if throttle stays >80% during the pull, its...
Almost every MT I've done ended with FF between 15 and 25.
Throttle is irrelevant of boost levels and timing. Its just used to control boost targeting when your WGDC tuning isn't very good. If you tune your wastegate stuff well enough, throttle will barely close if at all under full load.
Here's @Eastwood 's latest log. Bumpy road so you can see TC kick in a little (timing dip). Or an MT quirk that needs to be worked out... We'll see on a smoother road lol.

Perfect timing otherwise at...
This is called a timing correction - any step down from a cylinder ignition advance from the linear climb to redline. (ign1-6 parameters).
just means that the car detects conditions for pre-ignition. Not necessarily knock, but it is how you know you've reached the limit of the octane. some is...
Sorry, checked my messages and couldn't find which model it was. He said it was "good for 600whp". It is not much bigger than stock, similar to the hypercore.
obviously not enough fueling with JB4 to hit 600whp, but I wouldn't be surprised if it could manage 500whp.
Yes likely there are some gains to be had with the Hypercore, though I'm sure it will require a good bit of WGDC tweaking since the JB4 curve is for stock turbo.
I have done a car or two with a slightly bigger turbo and it held up pretty well. Definitely ran cooler IATs up in the rev range.
Great news to share!
Many of you have heard about the "MT/330e V24 firmware" that I've recommended for a while. I worked with Terry at BMS for several months to identify the aspects of the V22/23 firmware that were incompatible with MT cars, and also found that it helped significantly with...
