    Does the knock gauge on the torque pro app actually give accurate readings. Does anyone on the forum have good experiences with torque ?? Thank you

    its 100% accurate. matches what both my dhp and hpt tuners scanners say.

    So how can I tell what cylinder it's coming from. I run auto light 103's I'm assuming maybe it's time to change them. Mods zzp 10mm wires,3inch down pipe high flow cat res delete straight pipe back. 3.4 pulley 180 stat zzp 1.0 pcm zzp fender well intake. I seem to get 2 degrees of knock from time to time but usually when I don't run octane booster in my tank when I fill up.

    theres no telling what cylinder its coming from. 103 are to cold for your mods. put some 104's in it gaped at 0.52

    I always run 93 with an occasional octane booster. So 104s will be better as a hotter plug. Wouldn't that cause more knock? Also with the torque app it reads up to 35 degrees of timing at times. Which doesn't seem accurate at all. Thanks for all your help Scotty I'm just trying to keep that daily driver in pristine condition.
