Re: in search of help on knock retard on lt1 with TUNERCAT

In the fast attack knock retard and recovery rate tables... just multiply those values by .5 or if that doesnt do the trick then .25. I believe mine is set for .25 and ill get a couple degrees here and there but nothing major. OR you could simply zero out the knock retard tables for part throttle and PE mode.

Re: in search of help on knock retard on lt1 with TUNERCAT

max knock retard vs RPM

Max knock retard vs MAP

set those values to zero and youll never get knock retard again.

Re: in search of help on knock retard on lt1 with TUNERCAT

would this not let my sensors work though? bsically, would i be deleting the sensor and become at risk of real knock messing up the motor?

That is correct.

You could also try an LT4 knock module believed to desensatize the knock sensor a bit but I really dont know if they do a damn thing in reality. I have one but I cant tell ya if it made a bit of difference. Ill get knock retard if I dont zero it out below 3000 rpm.. above that mark I never see any and this is only part throttle driving so Im pretty sure its false knock.
