Default ECULABS V6 STI timing

Hi everyone I have a ECULABS modded computer for the car and just wanted to see how many people are running ECULABS.
The car is a 2000 gc8 and the ecu has all the a options activated
Multi maps
Launch control
Flex fuel
Full throttle shifting
Map sensor

Can also do live tuning wide band to narrow band emulation and per gear boost control.

The software comes with a base tune file that is from a v6 sti.
I am tuning the car myself and have a innovate wideband O2 mounted 60cm back from the turbo in the dump pipe.
Logging is done with romraider and we can now log extended parameters.
Some of these include
IAM 0-16 (course ignition correction)
Engine Load 0-48 (used to help look up fuel and ignition tables and others)
Fine knock control. (read from the ecu learing ram)
It realy bring the older gen cpu up a level.
Not connected with them in any way just very happy with the product so far.
Now the main reason for the post
I wanted to see if other people who have started with a sti v6 map have taken a lot of timing out.
I think the Apexi power FC uses the same base tune so some people should be familiar with this.
I should back up a bit here and let you know the car has
EJ205
3" full turbo back exhaust Hiflow cat.
Fuel pump
Under bonnet Pod filter (unfortunately)
VF34 running 14.9/15.1psi flat to 6700.
Eboost2 I have not set up ecu for boost control yet(There is a lot to learn)
08 STI Intercooler and oem plumb back return valve.
Always 98 fuel of course
Std wrx bonnet scoop. Air splitter and seal modded to fit larger cooler.
The timing has been reduced up to 18 deg in some areas to stop the knock sensor becoming active.
Could never hear any knock but next step is to make detcans to make see if the knock sensor is picking up false knock.
Any advice is welcome and sorry for the long post
Here is the ignition map.[ATTACH]16729
[/ATTACH] This is a log of second gear WOT data was running 14/14.2 psi at that time.

The car is still running ECULABS. Have tuned it to 17psi now and have installed a clutch switch for the launch control and flat foot shifting. They both work very well. The company is still going and have a active forum.

Very interesting this, I have a MY99 with a prodrive ECU. but I am very interested to know more about this ECULABS system. Do you have more photos of everything it allows you to do, of maps and others? can you share more of this?

It all sounds promising but you look to be the trail-blazer downunder (no pun intended). good luck, keep us posted. Subscribed.

No power figures. Car has not been on a dyno. Ran at the drags on the Subaru/Mitsubishi night about 5weeks back. think it was one of the last meetings before it was closed due to COVID.
Did a 13.3sec 102.6mph 1,9 60ft. Has more in it but don't want to push it any harder due to motor getting up in kms (220k) and 5speed. Will be doing a 2.5 for it very soon.
