Cyl 1 timing adjustment in fourth gear (-3degs) is interesting. Boost started teasing 19psi.

Anyone with experience have any comment on that?

-3 degree of timing correction is normal. I notice my lpfp is dipping to below 50 so I’ll need an upgrade soon. Any idea why my boost isn’t on target for low rpms? Fuel pump is around 80psi during these rpms so might not be the problem.

You went WOT at 2k, should have at least 2.5k before going WOT.

Turbos don't don't instantly reach boost target the moment you go WOT, it takes a couple of hundred rpm normally, around 500rpm from the moment the throttle goes WOT to reaching boost target.

It's normal for WGDC to reach around 100% and then settle down after reaching boost target. LPFP does look like it needs an upgrade.

Can you help me understand from that log what makes you say that? Is it the waning rail pressure? The low pressure sensor?

Appreciate the help. Just trying to get better at reading these.

Much obliged.

I don't see a "sustained" period below 50, so I'm guessing on other more healthy logs, that droop isn't as significant (or present at all?).

LPFP should remain above 50psi on WOT run, the log shows it was dropping just below 50psi.

Possible for Sensor to be faulty but it's probably the LPFP,
