tuning fuel & spark for specific cam angles

I have a few questions about tuning K-pro

hypothetically my vtec engages at 3000 rpm... high cam timing stays at 50 degrees to 6000 rpm. let say 47 degrees is the best angle for the cam at 6300 @ WOT.

in order to tune fuel & spark at 6300 I need to get the correct spark map at 6300 on the 40 & 50 degree maps as well as the correct fuel on the 40 & 50 degree maps.... since I am tuning for 47 the 50 degree maps would be set slightly higher while the 40 degree maps would be set lower (porportionately ???? correct????).

in my case (hypothetically) spark would be 27.5 for column 8 & 26.5 in column 9 & 24.5 in column 10 FOR BOTH 40 & 50 degree maps

fuel is set at - for 40 degree
column 8 -2113
column 9 -2349
column 10 -2502


fuel is set at - for 50 degree
column 8 -2161
column 9 -2395
column 10 -2536

column 8 (diff of 48...7/10 = 33.6)
column 9 (diff of 46...7/10 = 32.2)
column 10 (diff of 34...7/10 = 23.8)


since i am tuning for 47 would I use those settings for fuel if I wanted the following for 47 degrees (40 degree values add the difference above)
column 8 -2147 (diff of 48...7/10 = 33.6)
column 9 -2381 (diff of 46...7/10 = 32.2)
column 10 -2526 (diff of 34...7/10 = 23.8)

yes or no???? :P :thumbup: school me please I want to learn more

is spark tune similar

BTW - stock k20a-R with RBC, Hytech Header & 3" kteller/burns stainless exh & PR velocity stack

ok revised the question to be simple


tuning for 47 degree cam angle @ 6300 does k-pro interpolate between 40 & 50 degree maps or does it use just 40 degree maps (for 47 degrees)

It interpolates.
