fires. Thats why they call it pre det. But I could see were that part would still work. Im not saying that your product would not help. But I am saying it will not prevent knock. Just because it has to knock some for it to work. Tell me Im wrong.
I don't think that's entirely true Wade.

Pre-Ignition and Detonation are 2 different occurrences.

Pre-ignition like you said is before the spark, and almost always destroys the motor.

Detonation happens after the spark, and most motors (<1.5hp per cui) can live with a little detonation.
