Hey guys out there who encounter pinging, in which gear WOT do you suffer most pinging? Did you monitor the EGT too? If yes, at what temp?

Try running your car on BP 98 and also Mobil 98, some people / cars like one better than the other. You'll find also that not only high boost creates detonation. With older cars, they can have a fuel pump on the way out and not having enought flow or fuel pressure. Hence the car runs lean and can detonate even at slightly higher than standard boost.

and don't worry about advancing the timing drive the car on optimax or synergy and get used to it. you have a fast car already in a month or so then look at what you can do.

If your car's pinging, I'd imagine your EGT would go thru the roof? I haven't got a exhaust temp guage on my car to confirm this tho? matt |

geez if you have 12 or over thats pretty high????
mines got big exhaust, intercooler and pod filter and only has standard boost (7psi) it only goes about half way up the standard boost gauge. Which is roughly 7psi. Howcome yours is so high?? i mean thats not a bad thing, i want mine that high too!!!!!!! |

nah 4 inch isnt too excessive. its perfect!!!!!!
Gives it a really low rumble and screams at high revs. Also is less restrictive so it is good for it. And i also have a blitz pod filter with cold air induction, and zeal suspension. I just want more boost!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cry: :cry: |
