Lift Off Knock
I'm getting some fairly high knock counts (10+) whenever I lift off the throttle (both partial & WOT). It's worst when at WOT, but not at red line. I have no knock anywhere else. Anybody know a fix for this?
thanks!

Lift off knock is fairly common. Some times you can fix it some times you can not. Make sure none of the motor mounts are torn and that you have at least a front motor mount (roll damper). Look into upgrading the rear as well (I assume the evo has a rear, my car is mostly stock, never looked). The side mounts really don't need upgraded but make sure they are not torn. I've also seen some alignment issues with some of the billet front motor mounts on the market that causes the motor mount to hit the mounting plate or other hard stuff on the car. In some cases (and I'm not picking on you) the driver of the car just needs to learn to shift better. Harsh abrupt shifts will tear the gears up and cause issues like this.
Then of course you have 1000 other things to check. Clutch noise, downpipe, loose parts, ic pipes.......
