Pinking is too late really and isn’t the ideal strategy, but you do need to still listen for it.

Btw, we’ve a few guys here play on rolling roads quite frequently, and hopefully will also chime in - and hopefully correct anything I got wrong above! On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

Always avoid knock/detonation...simple.

Pinking really only apply to part throttle cruise, if you try to do that on any decent boost level then your going to get detonation and somthing will break.

That last comment chimes with me because I think it is very difficult to detect detonation by ear and it will often be too late anyway.

Think of MBT as the point at which the best torque is achieved for the least ignition advance. When you are far from MBT, 1 or 2 degrees change in advance usually sees a respectable increase in torque. When 1 or 2 degrees increase of advance results in little or no change in torque, you are at or near MBT.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

Pick a dyno operator who understands A series and has det cans at least. No it isnt. With det cans, any competent operator will be able to hear it before there is any risk whatsoever to the engine. If you're simply trying to listen sitting in the car with your ears over all other noise...then yes, anything you can hear..is already highly damaging to the engine. 9.85 @ 145mph
