cel knock?

So my car was tuned by tom (TCompusa) hopefully he can chime in with some help. but was just wondering if anyone here might have some ideas for me until he gets back to me.

So my problem is ever since a few days after my tune any time i boost hard in my car i get some cel knock in 3rd-4th-5th gear at higher RPM. any time even if im just cruising in 5th and go WOT it flashes if i get around 85+ mph. and afterwards after letting it cool down a little it flashes even if i Two step? any suggestions? since the tune i installed a short route UICP and a mini battery that is all.

car is on 28lbs


So my cars mods are as follow
MAP headstuds
Kelford 272
Supertech Dual S&R
Hallman MBC
Injen LICP
Short route UICP
Stock Diverter Valve
