If you are interested in having the boost creep fixed PM me about it and it will be taken care of. I agree with Jet that you should gap your plugs tighter, not because that is causing your problems, but because you should for higher boost levels. I also agree with Josh and the point he is trying to make. There are many things that will show up as knock and they do not all have the same damaging effect on the motor. If you are getting knock from detonation due to running lean, you are damaging the motor. It is not and never will be safe to run with detonation on a car that is street driven and needs to be reliable on a day to day basis. (anyone) Look at the tops of the pistons in a motor suffering from heavy detonation and tell me if you still think it is okay. << to the people that think lots of knock is just fine.

Alpine, Lets get the boost under control, make sure there are no leaks and make sure the fuel delivery is adequate. If any of these things are out of control, tuning is pretty much chasing your tail.
