Curious, if anyone seen knock sensor max out(+9) on take off from the light, stop.
I was told there is some odd fuel imbalance on both banks.
Current dumped techron and sea foam, to see if there is a possibile issue with junk stuck in the injectors or possibly issue with HPFP.

I could venture a guess after seeing your air filters.

I can venture, you hit ur head lol
After sitting at a stoplight (I think that's what you were trying to say), your underhood temps are going to rise dramatically. That is a fact. Then you accelerate and given your current air filter setup, it's a good first bet that is the culprit. Now, it "could" be something else, but why are you so adamant that it can't be the case? Why even post if you're just going to reject other's opinions?
