The only problem is on a long pull after I hit full boost at 14 psi I hear a long beeeeeeep until I let off. I'm assuming this is the stock knock alert unless someone put one on my car. It only happened a few times. How bad would the count be at 14 or could it just be false knock? I also thought you would'nt get much knock or any knock at 14 psi. I think it beeped once at 13 psi too. Could the knock alert beep but a datalogger monitor no knock??? Any help is appreciated. I don't really want to keep stock boost until I can buy a piggyback fuel system.

Is that what that beep is?! i always thought that was my boost gauge leaking. So does that mean i am getting knock? It holds a solid beep when i build up rpms. I am very curious about this also.
