Knock

[Rogue_Ant]

Ok, I'm at the end of my stick here.

My car is getting knock no matter what I do. As soon as I get on it, it will shoot up to 30-43 counts.

New Knock sensor

Ok, normal driving around I usually will get 1 count of knock every 30seconds or so. It will stay like this until ~7psi of boost. Then the knock starts to just shoot up. It doesn't matter if I'm running 15psi, 17, 21, ect. O2s are usually around .92, EGTs are ~1450f. I've ran the thing pig rich to quite lean without much change in knock.
Base timing is set @5btdc. By the end of the gear my timing will be pulled down somewhere between 2-8 degrees, depending on which gear.
I'm about ready to drive this thing off a cliff.

Any helpfull insight please

Comon I know I'm not the only one who has had problems.

I've tried tightening the knock sensor, loosening it, moving it, putting a washer inbetween, ect.

Really could use some help.
