I was not on a public session so I had been out on the track for close to an hour and my car just died with no warning. When I got it towed back to the pits it showed maximum IAT 2 (intake temp) had been reached so it shut the car down.
Great info. Thanks. I have a PLX KIWI3 attached and have been monitoring intake temp. I'm not sure if it's capable of logging knock retard but I'll find out.

Running a custom tune from the shop that did the install. I don't think anything was disabled but AFM so the light should still function for this scenario.

I'm stoked to get out there with the supercharger. I've been three times without it so I'll have some data to compare. Should be fun.
