Ok guys today when i logged my car and the knock rate its at 15 at WOT i know this is not normal, the sensor its new was replaced a couple of weeks ago altho i adjusted with my hands cause theres no way i could get a wrench in there this could possibly be? or also im my fpr its at 40psi maybe raising it a little bit to 43psi or so would do the job?
 
You need to reach your hang up under the manifold and put a wrench on the knock sensor and tighten it down. If it's too loose or too tight it will register knock that may not even really be there.

Also, raising your fuel pressure won't do anything for you. You need to have something to tune with, like an SAFC at the very least.
