C6, Don't feel to bad, my car is almost always apart or up on my lift.. I give you credit for doing the clutch yourself.. Its something I refuse to do on these cars and I'll work on nearly anything.

thanks in advance

ps included the log from the run.
Personally I would pay a vendor to custom map your car and then use that as a base to fine tune from logging. You will have a safe mode to go back to.

i think you can use higher octane ga to reduce the amount of knock until you figure out how to tune them out. my motor was knocking only for a week in low rpms then decided to blow.

Grammar and punctuation hate you.

My head hurts trying to read that.

ok kapolani, since you want me to use proper grammer. I logged a few runs, not too bad. since I adjusted the cams to -1 intake and +1 exhaust the knock is almost gone completely. suggestions to get the rest of it out? Thanks for the help with the immobilizer problem jack. Turned out the key and immobilizer had to be resychned and the code from the ecu that mitsu gave me was right after all. The car is up and running now.
