Title: just fitted my pfc couple questions
Post by: powermyster on February 12, 2008, 09:07:30 PM
getting 0 knock at idle but i get knock as soon as i touch the throttle.  the bar looks like a rev counter lol. i\'ve kept it below 3000rpm  and the highest knock i\'ve seen is 69 there is an hks aftermarket exhaust on the car and hks air filters and bov.  i\'m just running the base map till saturday. should i just continue to tip around or is the apexi base map fairly sound at htat level.

next question is. if its actually knocking is there anything mechanical i can adjust till then to help till sat

Could be a whole host of things mate... stone jusping around & making enough noise for the sensor to pick up on it, dodgey engine mount, pipe touching something, duff sensor!! but I can say one thing, if it was in the engine, by the time the time you notice the reading it would probably be too late!!

Base map is OK, but like you have been doing till now, keep it below 4000rpm till you get a full map! also if you are planning any other mods, do them now before you get her maped..... saves you money in the long run!!
