Hi!
You can ignore it. It is communication issue (PC lost some log frames)

This is happening to me as well. I can rarely get a complete full throttle run log without these errors.

Usually communication issues are cause by:
- Laptop connected to charger in cigarette lighter
- Worn/damage USB cable or usb port
- power supply and grounding issues.
From our experience 90% of communication problems are caused by wrong EMU grounding. Rewiring with new cables, to the clear common grounding point solves problems.

I am running the laptop on the it's battery, not connected to any power source in the car.
USB doesn't have any problem
The interconnector/pnp harness is made and supplied from the Greek dealer, i doubt it is grounded wrong.
And the problem happens only at high rpm

He does not mean the PNP adapter wiring, but the factory engine harness wiring may have a bad ground. Get out your multimeter and check the EMU grounds to your intake manifold. I have seen both issues with ground wiring to PNP adapter, and power supply +12v (corroded factory connections). Check them all, it's worth your time.

What kind of coils are you using? Any sort of CDI unit?

Ok, i will do.
Is this related to my rev counter going crazy sometimes when i rev it high? I am in gear full throttle 7-8000rpm and the rev counter goes down to zero and then back up again.
