Particularly since we have so many ignition maps on the IX, would you alter all the high octane maps together - say you want a degree less at 4000 RPM on full boost, you'd just click down every high octane map down by a degree from its starting position across a few load zones that you are likely to be dealing with? Do we have any insights into which maps are used or whether it dips between them yet?
Stock knock control seems OK. I have an ECU that has already been Ecutek remapped, and I have a knocklink, intermittent det can use and keen ears. I have heard little impressive until today when it was warmer when I heard a single tick of det in the cabin at 4000 RPM coming onto the throttle. Knocklink hit the red. It could not be repeated which suggests the ECU learned around it, although I'm surprised it went from nothing to quite loud knock - that is what my old EJ257 used to do LOL. The spool area is quite lean on my ECU, leaner than I like, so I'll soon be correcting this when I can write an image back to the ECU.
Not too worried about boost initially since I'm using an AVC-R, but there are boost maps that seem different in shape to the others and have quite high boost targets. There are some WG duty maps that are 100% and others that have a more expected shape.
