I have brought down the timing from 25 to 22 degrees and I have increased the BKR (burst knock)to .8 seconds and 17 degrees of retard. I made some headway by bringing the main timing back and the bkr to .5 , i can actually floor it now and not get knock a good portion of the time.
but surprise surprise i STILL get transitional knock a good portion of the time, and its not pretty, 6 degrees of retard today on a kick down from like 35, and like 4 degrees kicking down from 2nd to first punching it from a slow roll.
This is the most annoying thing on earth. Its the singular issue that makes driving my car feel like I am playing russian roullette.
Ive allready got WAY more BKR retard than the factory code, and rather conservative main table timing for alky. Im sure if i retard the main table more I would get rid of it but it seems pointless apply a long term fix to a temporary problem at WOT. It does not knock even with 25 degrees of timing after the initial hit. Wide band O2 shows good transitional AFR too.
This is with alky injection btw and its clear that its not reacting in time, it cant, since it relies on boost and once thats there, the stage for transitional knock is allready set.
Since a good number of you seem to have no problem with transitional knock, I would like to know what you did to eliminate it.
This car is mostly driven hard on the street, from a roll or a stop... so maybe this is why I see this problem alot more often than alot of other people.
I dont know what to do chip wise next. I was planning on adding a WOT microswitch to activate my "test" button since pressing the test button while going WOT eliminates the problem.
any ideas for the chip instead?
