Default Introducing Visual Knock (V-KNOCK™)

After a long time in the work, it’s finally here. I would like to introduce the new Vitesse Visual Knock (V-KNOCK™).

Bad fuel, heat, heat soaked engine, tuning, too much boost can cause engine Knock. You car’s ECU detects engine knock and it generates Knock Indicators.
The Knock Indicators have a very short duration, in the millisecond range, requiring special equipment to capture. In some cases, through the OBD interface or with aftermarket components, the user can get the knock count. Good information to know, but it’s after the fact.
Engine Knock is damaging! It’s important to know when it happens the moment it does! If you don’t know when your engine is knocking, how can you address the problem?

V-KNOCK™ works in conjunction with your car’s ECU to alert you the moment engine knock is detected.
When V-KNOCK™ detects a knock indicator; it generates a visual alert, and a Data Logger signal. Each has an adjustable duration.

V-KNOCK™ allows you to set a threshold above which you are interested in monitoring alerts. Suppose you are interested in alerts over a certain boost level, or over a throttle position angle. You have the flexibility!

Installation can be as simple as hooking up a few wires and a LED. Or you can interface it to a Data Logger or a PiggyBack to alter the tuning parameters.

V-KNOCK™ supports the following car models: 968, 951, 944S, 944S2, 964 and 993. More models will be added soon.

Detailed instructions (per car model) are provided to make installation a simple process.
