Not sure what the issue is but anytime im in 4th or 5th gear just cruising at like 5psi boost the knock count gauge will sky rocket. But when i run it hard and hit 19 psi the gauge doesnt move. It isnt even close to consistent. I drove for like 120 miles today it did it once on a flat open highway and didnt do it going up a 2 mile hill. But the day before i drove it 20 miles and it would do it anytime i got to 5 pounds or higher.( only in 4th or 5th gear) I really dont know what the issue is I just bought the car 2 weeks ago and it just started. I have no audible knocks i can hear nor a loss or power what so ever. And if this sounds like a bad knock sensor where is it located so i can take a look at it? Thank You any advice would be great.
