Hey Guys anyone here with an ESS setup experienced false knock?

And if so how did you get rid of it??

because for me they already desensitized it and still only occurs if I Stomp on the pedal at WOT, but If i ease into then go WOT it its zero knock any ideas anywhere?

When narrowing down tough things like this it's best to try to get as many different test cases as you can. Do different speeds different gears.

Your footer says 1000whp so I assume you are running e85, so like you are assuming it is probably false knock.

No personal experience with false knock but I've heard it can be lots of things. Something that comes to mind is maybe your exhaust. Maybe going instantly wot causes vibrations that the knock sensors pick up? Like I said try different gears, different speeds, different amounts of easing into it, etc.
