There is a difference between detonation... Ping... Knock... Pre detonation....If your tuner doesn't know why your car is detonating then he probably doesn't know if it even is detonating .... 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88253-detonation/page/2/#findComment-1471985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 6m 15d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 16/05/14 11:29 AM Share Posted 16/05/14 11:29 AM There's a workshop over here in WA that have their name plastered all over the drag races and take out double page Expensive Daewoo modding ads in car mags etc ("Turbo killer cam package!!!!" weeeee) so would appear very reputable.If you ask on a forum though they are an absolute joke compared to other shops, to the point their cars are often joked to spend more time on a tow truck than a track.Good luck!

Again not naming your tuner can you give us an idea of what mods are done to the car.. How high it went and how far he had to wind it back?

Rollin Member 33 Member For: 16y 2m 30d Posted 16/05/14 01:52 PM Share Posted 16/05/14 01:52 PM What injectors went in? Might pay to take them out and have the flow checked. If one is blocked for whatever reason (might have been dropped, bit of packing plastic etc stuck in it) you'll have one cylinder running lean and it'll be more likely to ping - but the tailpipe AFRs might be fine.
