I'm trying to work out why I have so much CFs on my mapped LCR. I'm running an APR stage 1 with the following;

SAMCO TIP
007P
Jetex Cone /w 3" CAI
New OEM plugs
Toyo FMIC

Did some more logs today as the outside temp was low. 5.5C on the dash

They are not massively high on 0 timing, but still more than i ever had. Weird how its just one cylinder. I used to get very high CF on my LC after fitting my turbo back exhaust, but it was across the board. After a custom map i got to down to below 2 even at spool up point which is the worst point. Have you tried swapping a spark plug and coil to another cylinder to see if the CF moves?

No I didnt think of it in that way. I suppose it is possible to get a weak spark plug, does those logs mean that the CF's are in banks 1,2,3,4? Bank 1 been the very most left bank as you look at the engine from front of car?

I've had REVO flashed to my car now and the CF's are much lower, I was able to put 1.5degrees of timing on without CF's been anything to worry about.

I've got a new set of NGK's which are one grade cooler, not sure if a stage 1 would run good on these though?
