Yeah what APEXI doesn't tell you is that there knock sensor feature is pointless any way. Every ecu calibrates knock differently to it's sensor on different model engines, so the safc 2 allows you to calibrate settings depending on what the drivers rev is like at normal engine temperature. You have to calibrate at a low and high rev setting, it's definitely not fool proof and works like ancient ATARI with estimation. Although depending on hot or cold temperature days you can some what estimate for yourself the type of combustion that is occurring with knock using lower or higher octanes. In 70* weather I can even feel a difference than 90* weather and looking at the knock monitor yo9u can some what visualize, but it is no where near close to what the ecu has calibrated..

ok so i have it all wired up now with the setting where i'd like them. there are some things i'd know much about it right now but i seem to have a small problem. after i make the adjusments and drive around to see if i like them i go to edit the settings but everything is back to the default settings.

are there steps i need to follow to save the settings? i'd go and try some things but it's too hot out side so in the mean time i'll look around on the web.
