So how much total timing at WOT are you running? You finally check into that?

1 degree any time its in boost.

Is it audible knock? Like can you actually hear it? Or is the CEL flashing? My knock sensor doesn't work. I want it that way. I got so tired of getting false knock CEL flashing when ever it wanted that I put a non working sensor in it.
I havent had any knock for a while but if I raise my timing or add boost I get Audible knock. 18-20 psi is where I am right now.
Ive chosen to just leave it this way until I get around to swapping to my 50 trim and a better intake.

I read his post, I was going off the colorful 3d graph which apparently isn't very accurate. So yes I was wrong but where I am running over a degree of timing I have no problems with knock, its only when I go over 18psi (which is always 1 degree in my rpm range) that I see knock.

18-20 is about the useful limit of 93 octane on a stock 2.5 IMO.
