There's no point in running another log until you replace the knock sensor. Your timing is understandably in the gutter. Change it and re-log, but make sure you don't overtorque the new one as it will contribute to false knock readings. You shouldn't have even run that log considering how low timing is since it's tough on cast internals.
 
Okie dokie. You should see a tremendous difference. Also when you run your next log, run the values for timing, RPM, knock, O2 and airflow since those will give us a more complete picture of the run. Also let us know what boost levels you're running.

Have fun getting that knock sensor in as it's a bit of a pain.
