problem with timing
i went to get my car retuned after adding a cobra heat exchanger and methanol and i can only hit 12 degree it i try to go any higher i get crazy amount of knock. my a/f is 10.5. when i had 20 degrees of timing on 20 lbs. of boost there was a ticking noise coming from my motor? i have recently done a compression test and all cylinders were with in 20%.
what could be wrong i had my friend who tunes my car save the data so i can upload it if someone want to try and help me whats wrong

Are you 100% sure you have good gas? My wife put 89 in the car the other day and when I logged it the timing would go to 14-15 and start knocking around 3500. Small town gas stations are horrible up here for "accidentally" putting the wrong octane in the tank.

er yea, what are the cylinder readings for each? Also did any of them go "to" within 20% of a cylinder and then level off or were off more and went to 20%?
will help a great deal
