Re: ghost knocks?
What changes have you made to the stock tune?
What grade of fuel are you running?
Any supporting mods?

Re: ghost knocks?
i was running a pre tune base map from flash pro, on midgrade gas, short ram intake and straight pipe.
but i already figured some stuff out and not much knocking now. im about to upgrade the stock injectors to 310cc from the civic si. Ill probably go back to the base map and restart tunning from there, since the tune originally was for the 310cc injectors. which that was the problem, i was still running the stock 185cc injectors. but thank you anyways for replying.
Re: ghost knocks?
Keep in mind the 185cc injectors are also paired to the clutch , you can make (in a perfect world) around 200hp with the stock size which is right around what the factory clutch is rated for.
its slightly counter intuitive but if you have knocking near the top of the rpm range add 1-2% more fuel to your high tables and knock will go away.
