I noticed the car is idling at 2200 RPM @ 0% ThrotPos & 7.4 deg of knock.

But then your speed says 32MPH

So I think something is wrong with your throttle cable or you must have been cruising in neutral?

How long has it been doing this?

Is your maintenance up to date?

Have you done a BLT?
 
just got this motor in it not too long ago so its pretty fresh, that could've very well been cruising at neutral, i have done the belt when this motor was outside of the car and am certain the timing marks are spot on, its wierd becuase it will selectively knock, like you saw that knock there at 0% throttle, but when im on it and the car hits 8psi (wastegate) theres no knock at all
