Default need assistance from REAL OpenSource Users PLEASE!!!

Hey guys, so when i first came on i was having issues with the car and they seem to be fixed, but now I'm starting to get into the tuning portion to make my mods work together and finally make me happy. I keep getting a ping and missfire (cylinder 3) on the car, when i pull one of my logs from RomRaider knock correction shows "2" @ 6psi, when i turn up the boost to 11psi it starts to show knock of "-1.5" and ping gets louder.. my tuner and i have worked with several softwares, (AEM, Motec, Hondata, Electromotive, etc) but never OpenSource. so its very different to us, all the values used are not the usual we are familiar with for instance "g/rev"..
i would like feed back from you guys that actually tune or are good and familiar with all this stuff. i have read some of the stickies here and on NASIOC, but not a lot of help with MY issues. i really want to get rid of this "ping/knock" when under boost. i went thru one specific sticky of "testes1010" where he was giving away maps and checked his RR tables, his knock reads "8" isn't that bad? i dont know, its stressing me out. i have owned the car for 5 months and i have never pushed the car over 6psi besides the times we are trying to learn this OpenSource. please any help will be good help for me. advice on the tuning and changes yall have made and maybe experienced this "pinging" and missfire issue it will all be very appreciated. sorry if i'm being so vague im typing this before meeting with the family for party...

i was told by AWD Tuning that i need to be tuned in order for ping to go away, because where i have opened up my air flow with all these exhaust upgrades that the factory timing is to aggressive for the car. thats the only info i have received from anyone. is this a fact? Thanks in advance guys!

MODS:
header and up pipe
3 inch down pipe
3 inch catless exhaust
Grimm Speed EBCS
255 Whalbro furl pump
Intake short ram
AEM wideband

It's a measurement of engine load. It's the "x" axis on the base timing and openloop fueling maps. It's used because these are MAF based cars.

No. Your looking at the kc advance table. Every table has a "map description". Click "view" and then "table properties".

Yes it's fact. You also need to probably tune the MAF scaling for the intake (helps if you actually list which one) and absolutely tune the WGDC and turbo dynamics tables for for the ECBS. This isn't something your going to learn overnight........

Have you read the Subaru newbie tuning section that is sticky above? It helps cover alot about how to tune suby and what different maps do.

At that low boost he could be running too rich as well. If you want all our help post your logs to google docs and link them to this thread so we can all see them.
