Damn that low ey?

Is knock that occurs in the lower load percentages not as dangerous?

Usually at 80...so I can see what's going on right before it starts making positive pressure.

wow I feel like an Ostrich all of the sudden...240 for me...then again I can feel it when the timing gets pulled...finely tuned rear end knock sensor.



Oh and I watch my knock counter on EvoScan all the time so I know when to worry and when not to.

150 here. I prefer to keep an eye on knock just before peak load.

Knock before peak load? Like the 8-9 psi as it spools? For the most part I have found 240 at peak torque generally runs 14-15...again only my opinion I am just asking a question

Well, my ramp-up is so fast and thats where I had some troublesome knock (pre-leanspool disable actually) and have just kept it there since. I want to keep an eye on it from the point where I'm asking the engine to start to dramatically increasing its load very repidly, not just the top of the mountain, so to speak.

On V5 patch I have low setting at 4 and high setting at 5 with 80% load.

On V2 I had it set at 4 with a load of 200%.
