Whipple stage 2 first impressions

A lot of what you guys are describing to me sounds like burst knock,going wot under 3k rpms with a high load.Alot of systems will do this where tthe pcm pulls a bunch of timing when doing this.The knock sensors have an anticipation factor buillt in and when they see even a little knock.at high load low rpm the pcm rips timing out and most of the time will not add it back or add very little for the rest of that pull.If u don't pick.up knock going wot at a higher rpm then that is what s going on and I think is normal,depending on how high of a rpm u have to go to to not get knock.Power enrichment does a play a part in this also.

That's kinda what I was thinking as well. I'll know soon as I'm back home and get to log it Out of town for the next 6 days. I'll keep everyone posted on my logs!

Over all are you happy with the Whipple kit and HP?

Yes I'm definitely happy with the kit and power. The kit and parts are super quality. I'm scheduled for the dyno next week so I'm not sure yet the exact numbers but It pulls HARD Car is sooo much fun!

Yeah I have been reading a lot of discussion about it in other posts. I guess I'm just trying to be lucky enough that for me it's just the knock limiting causing it. Winter is still holding on here and i may have to wait 2 weeks or more before I can figure it out

Turn knock limiting off.

Turn knock limiting off.

Oh I will. I'll be home wednsday, turning it off and doing a test run.
