    Will rod knock be detected by knock sensor?

    Will rod knock be confused with engine knock and send a signal to my computer to retard the timing? I just learned the sensor listens to determin knock based on sound. Also is there an audio recording of what engine knock sounds like?

    FRONT FACING manifold.

    One of the main reasons is to be able to put any front mount intercooler you want on. The stock piping and outlet positon is uncommon and your upgrades are very slim and pricy.
