It's a product of the forged internals brig louder and there beng more piston to wall clearance for forged internals so they slap the walls a bit more.

    What internals and oil pump do you have?

    Martin, you and I have very similar setups, z3 blocks with rsx-s oil pumps, forged rods and pistons. I think the high knock counts are a product of the sensitivity of the sensor needing some calibration and the forged internals just making a lot more noise than the stock cast pistons, same reason the car vibrates a ton more with the built motor.

    Typical built k24 short block, sleeved, and a type s oil pump.
