Wondering what everyone is seeing for knock, mine is regularly going to -3 if I hit boost at lower RPM, does it at least a few times a drive, I always get home and it says my highs and lows are -3 and 0 on that monitor. Is this pretty normal? I put my 91 tune on as well (still with 94 in tank) just to see if it could be a fuel quality thing, but I dont think so. Worth noting I have not yet down my MAF calibration as I am waiting till I am back in my hometown where the car spends most of its life to make sure I have it calibrated for sea level and the correct fuel.

Yes, I would imagine. Doing street logging for my 93 octane tune, but will schedule time with Alex and my shop to tune for WMI on the dyno.

Did you fill up 94 in BC or Alberta ? If you filled up 94 in BC that's the problem.

Alberta, I know that BC gas sucks, I run the 91 tune when I am there.

Hmm, it's odd but abnormal -3 is like nothing.

Mine hits -3 during most hard WOT gear pulls. It never goes beyond -3 degrees. I'd imagine their tuning philosophy is to advance timing during a pull until they sense knock, and they allow a certain amount before retarding timing. They have a pretty good article on their website explaining knock, how it's normal, and what amount is safe.

Cool, as long as its normal I trust em! Ill probably pay for one tune adaptation once I am back home just to be safe and make sure tune is happy with my car and gas!
