    So I just purchased the torque app and figured I would chekc for KR on my 100% stock 56,000 mile 1999GTP. Well I am a little scard to say the least.

    Standing start to the 1-2 shift I saw a peak of 7* of KR. . I thought stock GTP's at most should be about 2-3*.

    I plan on doing a complete tune up but ****...

    Its not too unusual to see it yay high like that. Some people stock have 6-8* of knock. Just get some flow mods.

    Sounds good. SD headers should be delivered today. Will test KR afgain after that and confirm if it is lower and by how much.

    A tune up and running 91+ octane can help.
