^This is true. At part throttle and when traction control is on, you'll see a lot more activity in the timing correction monitors. The DME uses corrections for torque limiting and you're also running much leaner during cruise. Your main concern should be WOT logs. This is the most stress the engine sees and if things are looking good there, you should be in good shape.
