<![CDATA[Knock problems]]>when i drive down the highway in 5th gear at about 3500 rpms my afc says im knocking really bad. I tried adjusting the afc a little richer and that did nothing, so i tried leaning it out and that did nothing. Ive heard that it could be a lot of different things causing it, like timing, too rich or too lean, spark plug gap, bad plug wires, etc. etc. 😕 :mad:

I have 550cc injectors, ten pounds of boost, I didnt time it troy did, and im not sure what plugs i have.

P.S. Im trying not to blow it up thats why im asking this.
p.s.s. Kevin let me know when you have time and ill bring it over so you can fuck with it.

Did you get a new knock sensor? if not check if its good I wouldnt bother with the s-afc just use the data logger.. what injectors are you using? How much boost, whats your timing set at? which plugs? Tuning a dsm isnt for everyone. If you want us to tune it on the wideband for the street give me a call (701)282-2902

PS. Please done Reck that Nice Spendy Engine!!! Good Luck!

The most possible know that can be record is 43.

I was going to do a knock sensor led or something, but ive heard theres no point.
