    I will be alright. Towing a trailer I get knock at 2k rpms have for a loooong time. Too freakin busy to get another tune from The MAN. I just floor it and the knock goes away. 120mph with a 14&#39; enclosed trailer is a little too fast however. I could be wrong but unless the knock is real bad. I would not worry so much.

    Yeah, the pinging is kind of a light tick tick tick under a light load around 2K. It pings up to about mid throttle between 2-3K....unless I nail it. It goes away if I nail it. I don&#39;t think it&#39;s too bad....but to me it kind of embarrasing....engine making noise.

    Living in BFAlaska has it&#39;s drawbacks some times, huh.

    Yeah ... It&#39;s a great place to live sometimes, but getting things up here sucks. We are 2 and a half times the size of Texas with only a half million residents. Lots of unspoiled country..... At least with HPTuners I can get things back and forth from Allen quicker and I can get Allen logs and help fine tune my problem child... plus I can eventually learn how to tweak things on my own.......

    OK...got HPTuners and have been doing a few scans. Can&#39;t look at much more until I get an unlocked PCM from Allen, which is on its way.

    I scan HPlog5 about an hour ago and HPlog4 about 2 days ago. Definitely getting KR at low rpms...aprox 8 deg of KR at times......does anyone see anything abnormal in this logs?? Anything obvious? I&#39;m trying to figure why my setup is getting knock retard. I never got before being bosted and I had previously been running a wait4me tune (91 octane tune).....never had KR.

    Could my O2 sensors be going bad? Allen suggested I think about 2bar MAP......

    any suggestions??
