Paul. you're right on when you feel you can't act fast enough to stop engine
damage with the knock sensor LED system. I might add that by the time your
computer has figured out that detonation has occurred it probably is too
late. The trick is to practice what we preach ... KISS . You  know what I
mean . If you are boosting , there is a level of boost and temperature that
we all know is going to become dangerous. If that is so ' the time to inject
an anti detonant is then. It appears that triggering with a certain level of
boost is the simplest and most effective way to do the job. Adjustable boost
trigger switches exist. BTW look up on the web http://www.aquamist.co.uk

IMHO.I know, I type terribly.   I am also affiliated with a Garrett
Distributor. If you guys need anything let me know. I probably can beat
most prices.   JIM DANA

Great news Jim. I am in the market for a TO4 and waste gate. What do you
have? Any recommendations of A/R and trim?
