I relize that i am knocking at 5-6k and at 6-7k but other than that it looks good to me but the wierd results that i was talking about was when i got to around 5500 rpm it felt like i was misfireing bad so bad that it felt like it wouldnt go above 6500rpm, thats why i didnt take it all the way to redline. correct me if im wrong but the knock that i am getting wouldent cause that feeling right?
 
Its not showing vermy many points there, you could have some pretty serious knock going on but wait for someone else who knows more.
 
what do you mean by points?? and the other problem that im having is at idle my timing used to show 5 degrees , befor i tuned in my low throttle settings on my safc, now that they are set i am showing 10 degrees. I thought that if it was tuned correctly it would show 5 degrees
 
Im not experienced with a afc but I do know that your getting knock and it looks to be pretty serious, by points I mean at each rpm.
 
ok i tried to adjust my safc to get rid of some of the knock and just did a second gear pull, i know i should have done a third gear pull but to many cops out. i could really use some advice on this one cause i am just getting more confused it looks to me like im heading in the right direction but im really not sure. im going to do a boost leak test tommorow like canadiantsi suggested.
