Hi there, I'm experiencing an issue with my tuning results with my 2021 Honda Accord 2.0t and could use some help. Despite using the KTuner Stage 2 tune, I'm getting better performance with the stock tune. Specifically, I'm seeing a 60-120 mph time of 16.2 seconds with the stock tune, compared to 20.4 seconds with the KTuner Stage 2 tune—a significant difference.

Here is what I use.
Fuel: 91 octane
Quick adjustments: All settings at max
Early spool: Enabled

I'm not sure why this is happening and would appreciate any insights or suggestions you might have.

Thank you!

Look at your knock control. Beyond that I have no suggestions for you. There's a clear power difference with stage 2.

That's not normal. That suggests your fuel quality isn't great or there's something else going on to cause knock control to pull timing.
