And to my surprise my car has 0 counts of knock on 10lbs of boost with the mods in my sig! Its kind of surprising because the front motor mount is totally shot and when I did the 2-3-4 shift I heard a loud THUD but still no knock!
It sounds too good to be true..
the car idle surges like crazy..it has not been pressure tested as of yet either
I wound out 3rd gear to 6200rpms with not a sign of detonation! Injector duty cycle was hovering in the low 90% range. The temperature was in the lower 40's and I was on 93 pump gas. o2 sensor was showing .83v throughout the run.
The only thing thats kind of making me raise an eyebrow is the fact that when I went WOT in 2nd gear, I got 19 deg of timing and it advanced to a max of 22. 3rd gear was the same story. Shouldn't I be seeing around 27-28 degrees of timing near redline? I know the 90 ECU's dont advance timing as generously as the 91+'s but it still seems a little low to me..hmm..
Final question. What would happen if the knock sensor was not screwed into the block? Or if the connector is not plugged up? does the car go into a 'safe' mode?
Thanks for reading...
