SR Blacktop Idle Troubleshooting

I need to format this a bit to get the information across without writing an essay so here goes...

Engine Diagnostics:
-Consult cable with ECUTalk, Conzult, NDS
-Zeitronix Wideband at test pipe
-Timing light
-Volt meter

Current Problems:
-High idle (sits around 1500 when warmed up)
-Timing off (not sure exactly but suspected)
-Some hesitation on acceleration

Things i've messed with:
-Set TPS voltage range .35v closed - 4.0v WOT
-Cleaned MAF, slightly high voltage readings before
-Replaced spark plugs with NGK and gapped to spec, old ones were burnt
-Checked mechanical timing chain/cams
-Attempted to lock timing mode with Conzult and set with timing light and CAS, idle was too high (1400-1500) and IACV doesn't want to adjust
-O2 sensor reading was wildly fluctuating with idle speed between 1200 and 2000, unplugged and idle settled down to 1400ish
-wideband reads between 14 and 16

Also getting a knock sensor error code.

My understanding is that letting the engine warm up, using conzult to lock timing mode, adjusting the IACV to lower idle speed, and then setting timing with a light and CAS is what I should be doing, but it'd be great if anyone recognized any other problems while im messing with it.

Please ask any questions that would help clear this up and ill answer back as quick as I can. Ill update with anything I find or test as I go.
