Default Weird Ignition Problem with Flash Pro

Hello, I've got a S2000 S/C with a weird problem

Basically, it doesn't seem to follow the ignition timing I told him to do after 7000-7500

I've removed all the ignition compensations, the knock sensor is disabled but as soon as the car get to 7000-7500 when the boost still climbing (around 14psi) the ignition instead of still be pulled back, climb back up for no obvious reason, I tried to removed some degrees on the whole table and it did work before 7000rpm but then after it went back to where it was !

Here the log and the map (It's a quick map made from scratch to see if my basemap wasn't corrupted)

we have also tried the knock sensor enable and disable and it is still doing the same.

If you can see anything please let me know, never had that problem before !

I got the file attached on the Hondata forum if you want to have a look this weird problem -

What do you see in your knock ignition limit table in that area? If you have negative values, that would be the cause. Otherwise, I suspect you have bad gas, and your knock sensor is detecting knock.

knock sensor table all set to 0 on every single table that related to Knock. We have tried enable and disable the knock sensor and it won’t make any different.

Have you actually download the map I put on the Hondata website? Hondata themself don’t have an answer for me either...

International one, for a UK 2008 DBW, and we only have 2 litres version in uk.

It just after 7500rpm the ignition just keep climbing no matter what we put it down on the table or whatever sensor we have en/disable. Very weird problem, seems like something overcome the flash pro

Is your issue with f20 or f22? How much advance did it push up to on yours? Hondata seems useless, been waited for 3 weeks from them and still no answer.

So what have you done with the map at the end?

Which version of FlashPro Manager are you running (i.e. FPM 1.1.9.6, or 1.2.X)?

No if you read clearly in the Hondata forum, they didn't really check our log. We have already mentioned about those problem they suggested on the first post. They just keep telling us something that we already knew
