    Base tune

    Brand new to the world of Hptuners. Trying to dial in the VE table. I keep getting KR at cruise idle like coming to a stop for a stop sign. any suggestions.
    6.0 with 228 cam,243 heads shorties and stock converter. Exhaust is tight. Timing seems to be all over at idle as well

    Try disabling the burst knock in the tune to see if the random knock stops.

    Also try to remove your MAF channels while VE tuning, it could skew your readings even though you aren't using them.

    You can try setting the idle area's of the timing map to a constant timing number of around 20 to see if it stays there. Also make sure your idle airflow tables are dialed in, otherwise it can keep jumping around.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    Would you recommend disabling all burst knock setting to 0 for a small N/A builds?

    Setting it to 0 would still be active. Set it to 8.0 to disable it. Read the little blurb at the bottom, you'd have to exceed 8.0g to set it off, something you won't see.

    Burst knock always gets the way, I always disable it.
