Recommended UTEC Knock Threshold settings for STi?
Are these the recommended knock threshold settings - I saw these on my UTEC (just a heads up: I'm not the tuner) and also on TurboXS websites.
Engine Mods: GT30R, UR up/dp. tial 44mm EWG, Halman Pro MBC set to 20 psi, Spearco TMIC, PE 850cc, Perrin rails, UR intake, Koyo rad, Greddy Type-S BOV recirc, lots of IC spray (not injection), UTEC w/ Ecutek Knock Threshold settings set to: idle to 2K: 105 2K to 3K: 100 3K to 4K: 92 4K to 5K: 75 5K to 6K: 72 6K to 7K: 65 7K to 8K: 63 8K+: 60 This is where my setup is different: Knock count threshold set to 3 And my setup goes back to their params: Knock retard step set to 1 knock max retard set to 10 knock retard duration 100 cycles Also, I noticed that the TPS doesn't read zero at idle - or even with the car not running - it reads 6. I have to go back and verify it reads 100 at WOT. I assume I do that with the car off and use the dashboard.

Thanks, yeah I know not to lower the numbers - my question is whether they should be higher and are these the recommended settings from TurboXS?
And if not (for the Sti) then what are they? |

Those are the default settings from TurboXS for the STi. I'd leave them there as the default settings seem to work ok. You could increase them a little bit but there is no reason to do so unless you have a way to verify that any knock you get isn't just engine noise.
