So it was tuning after all and not a mechanical knock sensor issue. That's usually the case on ACN. ACN fuel is no joke. Takes a lot of experience to tune, safely. Hopefully what you were hearing (detonation) didn't hurt anything. Good job keeping your ears open to it! And always happy to...

You are 100% correct, the system is a reactive system. I had 2 tuners tell me it was proactive....I couldn't believe it. There are proactive steps to the knock system, but in order for it to do it's job it needs to hear it. That's why it has knock sensors lol. If it didn't really knock then...

VERY hard to tell what it is. Detonation can be hard to pic up on a mic over exhaust noise. However, if you can hear knock, it's eventually going to be catastrophic. You made a post about adaption a few days ago when you mentioned me, 'auto octane' type post. Most often don't understand how...

There is not an adaption period on my performance tune. Just transmission learning as stated. The stock tune and FP tune all have adaption built in due to the one size fits all method. They can learn up and down. I don't ever recommend an auto octane/auto adjust when trying to make MORE power...

Ford Muscle magazine interviewed both Luke and I on leading the platform and paving the way for the 3.0L PIU platform to enter 10s! It's was such an honor to explain to them what it took for us to do this in the 5 short months we were on this project. Check it out! Let me know what you think...

Yep the P&L works great like @THNX SVT said! I used a suction cup mount before that

It helps get rid of knock. It won't hurt anything that's for sure.

Very very cool!!! Thanks a for the feedback! Your car was a great example of a solid build, that resulted in excellent performance! Thanks again man!!! I appreciate it!

Because it's factual, I do. I've done everything I've needed to do with my ST, so I no longer needed it. I have almost a dozen R&D vehicles, I can't drive them all. I'm not sure what you're talking about as far as pedestals are concerned. I'm not talking about me, you are. I'm just stating...

The car still has 140,000 miles on it, and has ran 10s over 40 times, on the: Stock motor Stock trans Stock turbos His car has probably seen more abuse than most cars will ever see in the last 10,000 miles. I know this platform isn't used to seeing this type of consistency all while keeping...

Luke has almost 140,000 miles on his 3.0L Explorer, in the 10s on stock turbos/trans, still kicking. This car has a TON of idle time on it too

Thanks man! Funny enough I forget about that all the time lol. Luke has really done a great job, I'm proud of that guy!

Thanks man! Luke is pumped, and gets to drive it everyday. Win win!

12/2025 - End of the year PIU Update! Luke has what up to this point is the most consistent, and only, 10sec stock turbo 3.0L to have recorded 27 10-second [consecutive] and documented dragy passes. Also 10+ 10-sec track passes to back dragy up. Adding those up we're over 40 10-second passes! 0...

COBB is working on it. They are working on a TON of new ecoboost support
