I do have a Wideband to tune with. For nock you have to get a dsmlink right. I heard that you cant datalog with a pda on the 2g?

Yes, you need something like dsmlink to read knock. Yes, you can datalog 2g's. I have dsmlink loaded on my laptop and my palm pda. That's nice because then i don't have to keep the laptop in the car all the time.

You can datalog on 2g's even without dsmlink with products like pocketlogger BUT you won't get knock readings, so those products are kinda useless. You can datalog timing. When you see timing being pulled back then you pretty much ASSUME it's knock.

Just get dsmlink. If you have a 95 talon that's your screen name says, you'll already have the correct ECU. Just need it socketed for the new chip.

First and foremost learn how to spell. BAH!
Secondly, get on a dyno. On my 16g I get knock even at 15psi with 680cc injectors because its not tuned. Tuning makes a huge difference.
Thirdly, if you want to read knock on a PDA I give you this quote from the DSMlink site: "- Can I use DSMLink with a PDA?

This question is a little tricky. Yes, you can, but only due to the generosity of one of our more active users, Hal Landry. He has devoted a good bit of his personal time to develop a version of the DSMLink client that runs on a Palm device (true Palm, no Visors or anything like that). The requirements include Palm OS 3.5 or later with color being highly recommended. The original software was written using a Palm IIIc, which can be had these days pretty cheaply off E-bay. This question is a little tricky because we don't want to suggest that the Palm is a fully supported platform. It's not. Hal doesn't have to do any of this. It's great that he does, but don't buy DSMLink assuming you can get all your questions answered related to the Palm interface. Hal makes the Palm software and updates downloadable for registered DSMLink users via the user's group forum."
