High Knock!

Probably posted the original message in wrong forum. I finally got my evoscan working with wb and notice on some logs, when wot or close to it, I began to knock. The mph doesn't matter asi I would be hard accelerating at 55mph and still see 1 knock count. However, I have logged as high as 13 (see attachment)! Before I go spend money on an e tuner (since I don't have one here nearby), I want to make sure its simply needing a tune or something far worst. When I posted in the wrong category, I had one member that said I'm far too rich under load and that can be the cause of it...

I'll quote what I said in your other post for reference:

You're running very rich at high load (and richer than needed during spool IMO as well). A tune wouldn't hurt.
Also, when looking at your log again, I noticed your timing is very high in the area where you're seeing knock. I suspect that's the other reason for your knock.

So, can I even still drive the car?
