"It is called the low octane map because it is the map used when excessive knock is detected, but it also gets used when a number of different faults are detected. You can think of it in terms of a safe map and a power map. But it only uses one map at a time. The idea of this is for safety. It has a secondary map to revert to when things aren't right. "So you are claiming that JWT goes in and changes the low octane map that is only accessed when faults are detected?? I find that very hard to believe since JWT is very conservative. Plus you have stated that the JWT program DOES retard the timing when in safety boost. So it does go to the "low octane" map that has lower timing then the standard map. What am I missing??? "What causes it to read from one or the other is dependent on whether or not there is a problem detected. This is not my programming, but it is the programming the ECU was designed with as per Nissan. Its a great system - no reason to change it." So if it is designed that way from NISSAN....why is YOUR program safer then JWT's???
