With my mappings the timing is well under 30 degrees by 5psi (around 23 degrees actually - miles away from the det threshold on 98)
Yes I did notice that, but then you proceeded to give instructions which could toast an engine. Your map is one thing, the stuff you said after was another.

Ive yet to have one car lean out with a/c on at idle. I dont know why your car does, but mine and the rest can hold 14.7-15.0 at idle with or without the a/c.
o2 feedback actually helps keep it stable, when your fuel map is scaled and set correctly, the function does a good job.

My post was not intended to start a shit storm, I was simply giving some advice that may save a motor in the future. The stock pfc map needs at least 7 deg taken out before any tuning should be started on 98ron on most setups.

No hate, just sharing information.
