knock retard or knock count

[Warped]

If less than 2* of knock retard at the gear change is reasonable, does the actual knock count matter?

If 2* of knock retard is not reasonable, and you tune it to no knock retard but still have some knock count, does that matter?

Will that 2* of knock retard ultimately lead to a problem?

I can pull out that 2* with the translator starting at 3200 rpm. Would that be the best approach or should I just let the computer pull it out if it detects knock?

Thanks.
