if it were possible that your engine did in fact go into boost in the lower rpms sub 3500, the engine is not going to like all that timing. You're going to hear the engine scream, for lack of a better term. High loads and low rpms are the most vulnerable areas for an engine to detonate its *** off and pretty much just kill itself over time. Look at the transfer of ignition timing going into boost and that pretty much tells the story all by itself. I bet that little *** turbo you are running could actually acquire boost at low rpm. Just be careful.

I think I start building boost around 3k. I can't believe the timing is not correct my tuner is very good.

Put the same ones in it. YOu just need fresh plugs to be able to read them better.

Update:

I posted the wrong map.

I went to my tuner and he pulled the chip in my ECU. He showed me the map and the timing is correct.
