And the knock is very audible....in traffic, i can hear it echoing off of the other cars! it's very embarrassing. And the kit with it's unique sound and the high idle, it sounds like an airplane when it is idling high and you're pulling into a parking lot. Also embarrissing.
Ok not sure if you mentioned this, do you get a CEL

Actually, just the opposite. The knock is heard in all gears; and in conjunction, the car idles high. The chicken or the egg......knock or high idle....they seem to occur same time. To describe it better, it's as if the ecu has switched itself into a different map. Then when shutting off and restarting the car, it resets back to normal....no knock, no high idle.

ohhh this is fun. I don't think it is your tune that is the problem. Maybe someone can correct me on this but sounds like your car is leaning out. Unless like rcz said you just got a screwed up maf sensor reading all kinds of crazy ways. Does the stillen kit come with K&N airfilters? also are you able to run log files? Last do you have aim. much easier to do this over aim
