Default Knock sensor
Just put on new exhaust and its hitting under the car pretty good. Would this have any effect on the knock sensor? Car seems to run like do-do when it bangin down there.

the knock sensor is picking that up and thinking it's real knock so it's pulling timing. you need to get ur exhaust tightened down to fix it.
