Well im experiencing knock and im not sure whats causing it. My car has been really doggy of late, so i hooked my logger back up to see what was going on. Well when i hit the gas, even just barely, it jumps up to 43 counts of knock, even when im not boosting yet, through every gear and cruising. I have replaced the knock sensor, and i do have lifter tick when i start up, that goes away after the car runs a couple seconds. I dont think my engine is knocking, im imagining if it were, it would definatly be audible. i did a boost leak test, and logged my car when i put my boost controller on (14psi) and everything was fine, so i guess i could do another and see if that could be causing it. The wierd thing is after i drive it for a while, the knock would just stop, and it would run fine again, then start reading knock, then stop. im kinda stumped on getting it to quit. any ideas? thanks

I wonder if it may be an injector because if i let off the gas, the knock immediatly goes away, then when i pick up the throttle it comes back and so on.

Oil level is fine, knock sensor is new, egt's run where they always been running, not exactly sure what "normal" is on it, but usually runs 1400-1500, depending on how fast im cruising.
