Yesterday shooting between two semi's...started off at 3/4 throttle in 2nd gear then went WOT at around 4k rpm's to close to redline...the thing was knocking so bad it sounded like i dropped a coffee can with 5 loose nails in my engine! I don't know if this was an isolated incident or if the trailers on either side of the car and having the windows down enabled me to hear what has been going on all along. Either way it freaked me out and I immediately reinstalled the stock software. I had planned on getting on a dyno but after this, I am halfway convinced to save my money and go with another tuner's software.
Variables: First time using BP 93 octane..just filled up the day before (normally use Exxon/Mobil); BCPR7ES-11 plugs with less than 3k miles; 65 degrees F outside; car was fully warmed up; car is equipped with Abbott Delivery Pipe and JR filter, otherwise stock hardware
