Can is in- looks killer. Will drive her today and log the bitch. Dan @ Masport has the dyno run logs, we do not. IIRC, it only shows knock retard at WOT (5000 rpm or so and up). I believe it was pulling 8 degrees!! We will figure it out. I am guessing blow by or excessive oil through the PCV.

Nevertheless, we're making progress

Not to knock the 2010's and start a fight but I dont think they are as comfortable as the forth gens of even the third gens.

I was gonna buy a 2010 SS but after driving it I said to myself I could just take that money and drop it into my T/A.

Spend less, go faster

I didn't take the plugs out yet and the knock is random RPM but I think it always hits at 60% TPS according to HPtunners. I dont have the data logs.

I drove it home with my Tech2 and didn't see any knock during reg city driving.
