Completely stock engine with a recent valve adjustment. Running 92 octane. Gutted airbox and an engine torque damper are the only mods. I put the stock "tuned" map on it and got a couple of knocks on cyl 3 in my first test run & datalog. The car was warm.
This is my first time tuning, I plan to run the stock "tuned" map until I decide on custom tuner. Are these knocks cause for concern? If not, how many knocks in 20 min are cause for concern?
There's a lot online about a phantom knock on cyl 2, but not cyl 3 and I have no perspective on if these 2 knocks are even noteworthy.

2 knock counts in 25 minutes is not a problem.
Remove 2 degrees timing and see if the knock count changes. If not, then it is some other engine noise that the knock sensor is reading.

Im intrigued by this reply - when you say not a problem, do you mean that 2 knock count under WOT is nothing to be worried about?Hondata wrote: Mon Mar 18, 2019 7:49 am 2 knock counts in 25 minutes is not a problem.
