Ok, I keep seeing other peoples threads with people crying about seeing the knock level at like 10. I installed my Apex SAFC II, without actually connecting the wire that corrects the air/fuel ratio because new injectors are on the way, and when I see the knock level it goes anywhere from 0 to 198 at different RANDOM rpm levels. The knock could be at 0 at 4000 rpms, or 20 at idle, but usually sits between 30 and 90 maximum for any given gear pull. Is it just hooked up weird since its not hooked up all the way? Could I have just setup the knock sensor on it incorrectly??? Or does that just mean it actully is that high and needs to be fixed by 3 weeks ago? :cool: :barf:
 
the SAFC "knock-sensor" does not, and will not work for our cars... 2g's have to tune based on timing, because there is no real way to read knock (as of yet.) So just ignore your knock count, because it isn't right.
 
Thanks a lot, man... That was scaring the piss out of me, and that was horrible for my leather. You just killed two birds with one stone, feel good about what you've done and treat yourself to a nice dinner. You deserve it! :thumb:
