my car shows knock on dsmlink no matter what. This is what i have done to try to fix the problem.

1. thought it was the fuel injectors. replace the 550 with 880.
2. checked the timing dozens of times.
3. new spark plugs dozens of time.
4. propain injecection.
5. tested for boost leaks dozens of times.
6. bought a wide band o2.
7. tried gas from many different gas stations.
8. new oem knock sensor.
9. check compression 160-160-150-150

now if i run race gas,everything seems fine.

my mods for my 97 gsx are e16g.6bolt.2g head.1g rods.2g pistons.web cams.small greddy fmic. and more here http://www.cardomain.com/ride/569551.

Did you check timing marks or mechanical timing? (timing light)

i dont think its phantom knock because when i put the gas gas in, it went away. i having 5-8 counts of knock. on any psi.

my lifters are making any noise at all.

and i dont even hear the car knocking at all.
