Hey Guys, Gals and Gurus...
I posted this on ECM link forums as well but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here.

So I just got my brand new E316G on, FP manifold and 3" mandrel bent exhaust on my car. I also installed a new Knock sensor to try and help iron everything out. I am running Wally 255, and an A-1000 set at 37 psi for my BFP. I am still on stock injectors. My Wideband is reading fine and I have an AEM wired in so that I can log it as well. It is not perfect but it is within .1-.3 of my true AFR as my gauge displays it.

I have done some MAF comp cruises and got the idle sitting nicely and the airflow per rev and Maf comp seem to be about right. I am doing a lot of pulls trying to figure out what is going on, whether I am getting Phantom knock or what, but I can do a clean 3rd gear pull no problem, but I am getting a bunch of knock in 2nd and 1st. Some of it is part throttle knock some of it is WOT.

I am checking for boost leaks now, and have an extra set of 7ES's I am thinking about swapping in.

I don't know how to post a log to .org, or I would have done so. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif
