The best way to verify would be to call Turbo Dynamics

NYTurbo is right - you're in good shape. Here's what I have - same versions as you.Your fine except the stock tune.
Besides, I'd trust what Mike and Ben say more than what you might find on TY about your specific tune files, if they say you're all set, you're all set. They've never had a burn down since the first version of EcoTrail hit the snow in late 2016 and I'm certain they're not about to let one happen now. Their tunes are 100% proven. Why are you questioning it?

Oh, that's right, forgot about that - did you send your logs to TD? And did you try going back to the stock air box to richen it up and rule that out? Or even just wrap a towel around the CAI filter, that would richen it up big time.I’m questioning it because on fresh 93 octane I’m getting knock on 270 PT.....

Well i don't have the logging option... I am going to hookup my Wideband next week when i get home.... See what my AFR is under boost. Then I ordered a quiet core insert for my Heartbreaker. So that will richen things up as well if i need too. I will also try the stock box if i need it... Im also gonna change around my clutching..... Im hoping to have it running right by the end of next week... Guys say i won't damage my engine if i get knock because it will pull boost.... But i'm not seeing that.... Boost seems to stay at 16.5 even when the knock light comes on.... I need to get this figured out before my MI trip in Jan....

I don't think the knock protection limits boost - but it definitely pulls timing. Not sure how much, but I remember Ben explaining it would pull enough out to stop any knock, even with the big boost tunes. I wonder if it could be some other engine noise tripping the sensor.Well i don't have the logging option... I am going to hookup my Wideband next week when i get home....

Yeah.... Could be... Or possibly a bad knock sensor... AFR will tell me what's going on for sure i think... Won't knock at 11.5 or less...

Some things up , never ever seen knock on power trail and with 94 at that Get in touch with Ben . Could be fake knock from clutches or something. I've run 87 on Power trail and never seen knock.

My memory is slipping - you're right that it's supposed to pull boost, says so in this video.
Here's the full explanation
