[Biturbos4] Bum Turbo??? Help me with the Gutless Wonder!

[j y]

VAG blocks:
 
003 - MAF nbrs (chipped cars should be topping 200 g/s - I maxed out @ 272 g/s)
 
114/115 - boost
 
033/032 - Air/Fuel readings (@ WOT .86 is the desired setting for chipped cars - not too lean or rich (.86+) - according the AudiWorld gurus)
 
029/028 - correction factors for timing (not 100% sure on this one)

Its not the turbos...

Yes I am chipped, no boost gauge... but here is what I logged

RPM throttle position mbar
1240 22.7 920
1880 35.3 920
1920 57.6 1330
2160 100 1890
2480 100 1870
2920 100 1870

So it seems to spool quickly...
Now how to I log knock and timing?

thanks for all the help!
Adam
