Looks good except for timing on Cylinder 6. Lagging behind the rest by several degrees across the board. I'd check the plug on that one. 4 is a bit off too, but not as much as 6.

Unless its consistently the same cylinder(s) in multiple logs its probably fuel quality.

Also why NGKs and not new OEM bosch? Cause PTF said so?

That's not a reason to change plugs though. I run OEM bosch OEM gap, as do many others, on both upgraded turbo and stock turbo, pump gas and ethanol maps, with or without meth, etc... no reason to change unless you have problems with OEM as you can just cause other issues... Even my 45k mile OEM plugs that were never changed worked on MHD stage 2+ E20 map with E30.

Which plugs?

Looks pretty solid. I wouldn't rev above 6400 though. It's unnecessary, and that's where you start to get timing corrections and the "wavy" WGDC and boost ive seen in other logs as well.

What gas are you running now? I'm thinking it's not the same as the previous log.

And I'm also on the stock plugs are better side. After several N55's and big turbo Audis, chasing timing drops was a nightmare. But I always ended up with the best results on stock plugs, with stock gap. Even with the big turbo - and dozens of plug changes :/. Best way to know is by running 3 or 4 logs and see if the drops are consistent.

1-4 plugs are simple to check quickly if desired, but really not necessary without seeing a pattern.
