Re: Knock Detector

Ok A way to "Increase humidity admission air" is water injection or rain :D There are techniques to increase the chamber turbulence, but it is a engine tunnig top secret :P I believe that the methanol injection is a way to Increasing Fuel Octane. But, talk about is very good. Everyone toge...

Re: Knock Detector

What are the possible detonation prevent solutions? After identifying the knock occurrence with Knockcircuit, you can make some steps to avoid them. Through MegaLogViewer, you can change the ignition time or Richening up the mixture (for example) only in the rpm/map range where the knock is occurrin...

Knock Detector

Hello to all. (Sorry by my English) This article is about a circuit capable of detecting detonation with excellent precision. It was tested in VW 1.8 Turbo Engine with the MS-Extra1 pcb v3.0. This is an enhancement and much better of the existing knock detection circuit. SPECS RPM range: 2000-7200RP...
