No, What on earth are det cans?? I just listen to see if it pinks, I take it by RS1's reply this is a bad idea. There isnt much on megasquirt for knock, There is only a system that retards the timing if it knocks

The base settings ( not allowing for ACT compensator)

3500 - 7000 rpm = 12.5' ignition timiing across the board.
@29psi , 3500-7000 rpm = between 4 + 5' ignition timing.




You need to run DET cans, as your ear just isnt good enough to map/ det check a engine.
And judging by that i am too advanced
