TC maximum pressure ratio

Is anyone having trouble hitting boost control targets? I'm unable to achieve higher than 20psi under any circumstance at 3200 feet. It sure feels like I've maxed of the factory turbo. The SI engine in factory form peaks out at 17-18psi which seems about right for this elevation. I've tried the +6,+...

2017 Civic SI knock Retard

So I've just got a FlashPro for my 2017 SI and was doing a bit of logging before any real tuning just to get the feel for normality. I have noticed that I get lots of "Knock Retard" blips from 5 to 6 degree. I have assumed that this knock is a sensitivity issue or maybe even an anticipatio...
