More false knock

[Bartly]

What!!!!!,if your knock goes away with torco,it is not FALSE knock,it is real knock.

Yes I know that. Been quite a shit show, wish I had never heard the word Procharger. 10 months of trouble shooting a kit that came with a tune that was supposed to be plug and play. Called and asked all the right questions before purchase and they had all the clever answers to make me give them my money, now here I am just going down the rabbit hole. Told them all I had access to was my local 91 octane, was told no problem, system works great with 91 with our proven tuning. All complete bullshit to initiate the transfer of money from my bank account into theirs. If you can't tell, I'm kind of frustrated.

No, that's another wonderful experience I could have done without. Prochargers tune made my car accelerate on it's own as well as having the knock sensors peg +4 at WOT.

Sorry to hear you've had such a terrible experience.

You know, I typed that response above after waking from a cold sleep. I had a let down with some tuning stuff yesterday and woke up and read the forum and replied to Tommy about my situation when half asleep and frustrated. Now after just spinning around in the car it isn't a horrible experience really, car is fun to drive and I like the pull it gives, just hopeful the + knock events (which happen on just about any medium and up throttle) don't spell the end for my engine or something along those lines.

No, maybe 150 miles away, actually I did hear there is one about 90 miles or so maybe, not really an option.

procharger doesn't list octane on their website, but I am guessing this is for 93 octane :
STAGE II INTERCOOLED SYSTEM:
BOLT-ON 300+ HP WITH 10 PSI OF HIGHLY EFFICIENT BOOST

the numbers were more conservative at one point, and I seem to remember 91 octane was listed there.

Compare this to :

https://www.paxtonauto.com/product.php?id=274
The complete, fully calibrated, 50-state smog legal system will boost your stock 2011 GT to 615 HP and 475 lb/ft torque with 7.5-8.5 PSI from the NOVI-2200SL supercharger.

Manifold boost pressure: 7.5-8.5 psig @ redline on stock engine
Supplied SCT programmer re-flashes the ECM with a safe, custom Paxton calibration for 91-octane fuel.

* paxton doesn't list the 2015 but probably similar

https://vortechsuperchargers.com/products/2015-ford-mustang-5-0l-gt?variant=8317894081
630HP - The complete system will boost your stock 5.0 GT to 630HP and 483 LB/FT Torque with 7.5 to 8.5 PSI from the V-3 Si Supercharger at factory redline using CA 91 Octane fuel
