Its just not realistic to have no timing corrections. Even the stock tune, if you log it with the AP, has timing corrections here and there and that's just fine.

Having a discussion with Rob@Cobb a while back I asked him about timing corrections and basically what they considered knock related/bad and when it would be wise to back down on aggressiveness in a tune. Very roughly speaking, when you see multiple cylinders starting to have timing corrections at the same time (cylinders talking) this should be an indicator of higher aggression than the level of octane the engine is using safely supports.

If you see a bit of timing correction (3.x and less) on a single cylinder or 2 non adjacent cylinders here and there, that's perfectly normal and not to be worried about really.
