Are you using knock muffs to confirm if its actually knocking. I wouldn't take what the engine knock sensors are giving you as gospel. I've heard they are over sensitive.Quote:

My advice is to invest in a set. That way you will know for sure. Hell that's how it was done on old carby fed cars with dizzy's and vac advance.Quote:

What fuel has the car been tuned for?
93 octane
It took some effort, the game was "knock sensors". They are over sensitive as macca said earlier. I had to cheat the ecu to make the car flying as a falcon by blind them. Thanks for your help.
Good job...:cheers:
Try using the 8 cylinder knock pids. youll find that theres generally only one or two cylinders doing all the knocking .dull them down till they all read the same when actually knocking add a few degrees and make it rattle at low engine speed (easy to do in a lugged higher gear.)Dissabling all the knock sensors is not the best way to do it.
Thats my two cents,
