fed up with knock control
I will be testing this more thouroughly (sp!!!) on my car this week/end.
Once I have verified that it does what its meant to then I will release a few ROMID's and let the general population give feedback...
96530006 will be one, what other ROMID for ppl with phantom knock? and dont ask for 96940011

Is it because you've been getting a lot of requests for it? Or, is it because it's a difficult one? Should I just give up hope?

im also pretty sure there is another rom you can switch to with little negative side effects

Just to add to the weird harmonics theory. Right before I spun the #1 bearing i would get ticking in the 3500 RPM range +- 500 ish. There is something going on in that range for sure.
I'm right in the middle of a 2.3 build. Hope i get lucky and don't have a bunch of phantom knock.

Ok so I have some good news. I have a customer that had the intermittent 30 count knock on spool up (stock turbo). Couldn't solve it for nothing. Well he went ahead and changed two things. One being replaced his catback with the stock exhaust and put a QTP downpipe cutout. Second being he replaced his Timing belt and associated parts.
Now, No knock.
So its interesting to see, I personally think a faulty tensioner may be causing noise that fools the knock sensor, or it could have been a loose exhaust. Who knows.
Just my findings.
Now, No knock.

). I re-used both tensioners but tightened the pulley tensioner a little more, removed the balance shafts, installed brand new set of spark plugs, changed the 3" downpipe to the one specified for the EVO 9 (ACD in the 05's)+(no flexpipe for the E9 dp), and changed to a Greddy 1.6mm headgasket. No more 36 count. I know I know, this isn't a definitive answer but, I could be any one of these things.
