Originally posted by Keyser: You don't read well. I said the knock sensor turns off in high rpms. His top number will not get any higher by turning it off. I also said the under FI it hears false knock not under stock conditions. Sometimes with long tubes it will throw it off but usually not stock.
I read just fine but thanks for askin';) You said "why would they program it to turn off in the high rpms if it wasn't prone to knock." Maybe by "they" you mean somebody other than Ford. If that's the case then my bad, I never tried to beat a dead horse an FI my contour.
THe other comment about 500 hp was a bit of sarcasm on my part. There is more HP to be had with a proper tune albeit, nowhere near 500.
