False kr or not?

[Jnibbs24]

Got on it this morning, noticed I hit around 4.9kr on the gauge, I'm stock except for a can tune and Cai, that doesn't seem like a normal reading? Also notice upwards of 3kr on the way home with the ac on and putting it down sometimes... Any ideas?

Is it really hot when you're doing that? I'm not trying to be an ass, but the solution might be to keep off WOT.

[Jnibbs24]

No was at 4am this morning so prob 60 outside n was only 79 when I had ac on

You said you are stock with a intake, sounds completely normal to me.

Most stock cars will see upwards on 4-7º of knock on a normal basis.

if you got hp tuners, or someone near by, (your sig) have them lower your wot timing. car feels stronger with less timing and no kr, cause the kr just pulls the timing any ways and then it falls on its face.

Ahhh, so when you open up the air flow is when you virtually want none then?

not sure what you mean there?

[Jnibbs24]

Stock is 4-7 degrees but that seems to be norm, so when adding performance parts, you really want close to 0..

[Scottydoggs]

yes, once modded you want no kr at all.

but even a stock set up thats kr free is better then one with 5º kr. if you got a tuner handy, fix that.

[Jnibbs24]

Yeah I agree, I just thought stock had 0. Good to know, thanks man

[Scottydoggs]

i had 8 stock lol it was a dog. rockers killed 5 off, u bend delete killed the last 3, then i got headers and a tuner and well, more mods were installed.

[Jnibbs24]

I have a dp just haven't gotten around to installing it lol one of these days

[Scottydoggs]

[ericspecullaas]

[Jnibbs24]

Lol priorities man, my lil daughter n work keeps me busy

[Scottydoggs]

but its a 4 bolt job? kids with small hands are a huge help BTW lol

then theres always the chance the o2 sensor wont come out the old dp. mine was fused in there.

[Jnibbs24]

4 bolt jobs are the longest ones, duhhhh lol
