Mode 6 went away Rusty.  The EC2 now has a turbo boost retard built in that linearly retards timing between 32 to 60" Hg.  Nominal timing is 13 deg BTDC by the time it reaches 60" MAP.   This is to avoid detonation.  
 
That sounds perfect, and just what's needed.  Hmmm, even I might need this some day :-)  Just out of curiosity, when did this change occur?  I think I have one of the later, if not the latest versions of software, so I'm guessing I have this new feature.  Of course I was just looking up Mode 6 in my manual, that came with the EC-2 firmware :-)
 
The next question is- does Todd have this feature in his software?  I would think anyone running a turbo should make sure they get this ASAP. 
 
Rusty (wondering what else the software does that I don't know about)
