So, my plan is to try and creat a Diesel tune that will reduce the amount of diesel given for a certain load / RPM.
I'll then create a map in my CNG ecu to replace that lost diesel. I'll also look into the timing issue and definitely try and stay on top of knock. Here's an interesting article on diesel cylinder pressure vs. CNG cylinder pressure.

I don't know what this "compensation" you're describing would be.

"replace that lost diesel"?

I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything but do you know how a diesel engine operates?

"So, my plan is to try and creat a Diesel tune that will reduce the amount of diesel given for a certain load / RPM."

I can't help but think that you may be confusing gasoline engine operation with diesel engine operation.
