    Need help with KR

    I need a experienced opinion on my KR. Can someone please evaluate my scan and tell me if this looks like false knock or is this the way REAL knock looks. The car was loosing traction off and on due to the wet road. The exhaust was open right after the headers. Thanks in advance!

    That looks like real KR.

    Only way to know is to run octane booster or race gas ( unleaded )

    Try backing off your timing a bit. It looks like you have lots of flow ( judging off of MAP and MAF)

    NA car that flows 55cfm, has 900ish O2s, and really low advance with high knock retard doesnt sound NA to me.

    Whats up with the MAP psi??

    Give us some details!!

    Re: Need help with KR

    I'm sorry. I should have given more detail. Its a L67 with MP112 blower(17 PSI from 2.8" pulley), AC intercooler, LS1 MAF, LT1 TB, INTENSE 1X cam, P&P heads, SLP headers.
    I don't hear any detonation, it just doesn't have top end power. After 5500PRM the torque drops significantly. I guess I'll try booster to see if it does it. The temp. of the coolant exiting the IC core is only 40-50F max at full throttle. ??? I don't know.

    Looks like your lean to me. Add some more fuel in base PE table. By add, i mean subtract (ie: lower AF ratio) What size injectors are you running? 60s?

    Cool Flames, my scans look really similar to yours....

    Try this..Try turning off TCS, and fattening the last row of your VE tbale, by say +10

    on Narrowband, look for 940 O2s.

    You should really look into Wideband.
