ARe you at high altitude? I ask because someone else on the board was seeing almost constent kr at anything over .4 map and it might be due to his high altitude location (over 5000').

I wonder what could be done to compensate? Maybe setting an AFPR higher (wonder what it reads now), or adjusting down the timing in all fields. Maybe find someone at the pits with a similar setup who scans and alters their pcm and ask what they do to correct?
