As you come off the throttle it uses load points that have most probably not been tuned, as a result slightly detonating.

This is very hard to replicate on the dyno, one good reason the car must be taken for a street run to ensure everything is a.o.k.

One easy fix is to rip out 5degree's. If it does it thenyou know she's running a little too much ign. timing in the cells above the cells that wot uses.

as cubes said when you back off the throttle and clutch in theres a brief moment where the airflow meter "load" will drop but revs will at the same range so youll be in cell area say 15 across ish and 4 or 5 down which wont be tuned. a map trace would easily show you which cells and then you could just take out a few degrees there

No i am not hitting rev limiter, and it is slightly rectified when i quick shift, yes.

So obviously my tuner hasnt done a proper job? He should fix this free of charge? i just got the PFC n tune on friday...

As I said earlier.. its pretty hard to get it spot on unless you take it for a good road test, which many tuners don't. Even then under some rare circumstances such as brisk hills driving you may find your self using a load point that isn't usually used as a result it may have a slightly higher detonation reading.

Its hard to get it spot on. Takes time and tweaking.

Fair enough, we took it for a road test though with the laptop connected doing a map trace, no green highlighted sections... at one stage knock went up to 88 (not while tuning this was last night)

When changing gears i get a KNock spike on my PFC of about 60~80 sometimes...

Is this spike in between gear changes normal, or is something wrong?

Knock with throttle closed is irrelevant, no engine damage possible. Move on.

:D cheers :D

and it is slightly rectified when i quick shift, yes.

Most off us roll off the throttle quickly, we don't simply jump off it having it completely closed within a couple ms, I had to drop 2 degree's from the 2 load points above the load points used at WOT, around 3000-3500rpm from memory.

If I were to change and slap the gears quick i would not experience high knock readings. At first I suspected fuel injectors but it wasn't.

hey got a queston simlair topic any replies appricates with my power fc when running down through the gear ie engin breaking i get quite high knock ratings ie 40 withc is much highte then even when ime on it hard i get readings of like 15 thanks guys for your replys

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
