Posted this in general engine management but this sub forum seems to get much more traffic.

Ive attached three log files in hopes that someone can tell me whether I'm experiencing real knock or false knock.

Now I have been trying to hunt down a metal rattle from somewhere under the engine bay but haven't found it. I'm worried it might be rod knock, but is rod knock consistent? ie would I be hearing it during idle??

My pulls are pretty inconsistent with knock counts but the pulls are nevertheless not knock free. Some pulls I see lower knock counts, one pull I logged over 20 counts.

Mods:

05 Evo 8
3" TBE (100 cell cat)
SpoolinUp COP
GSC S2 w/ cam gears
Supertech dual valve springs 96 seat pressure
Forge DV
Ebay 02
Forge MBC 24-25 psi
93 octane
Tuner flash

Might have missed something but thats the bulk of motor mods

Car left the shop running perfect with no knock counts so its not the tune.

Is my car going to grenade?!!??

Any input would be great guys.

Thanks
Andrew
