post raises some concerns as to the validity of this claim, especially knowing what I have put engines through in the past without failure. I can recall a dyno session where ignition timing was being pulled like MAD. I was seeing timing being pulled dramatically down to single digits, like 6 and 7 degrees of timing.. This was actually on Todd's turbo'd NA engine, of which took a good beating that day. It was pulling timing well above 3600RPM too... I recall seeing datalogs (using the conZult) where timing would get pulled into these sub-10 degree ranges and stay there to redline. The detonation sensing circuit and algorythm goes past the closed loop region of the timing map as I have seen this occurence on a few occasions. That car made a good number of pulls, I believe around 25 or so.. I made appropriate changes to keep this event from happening and that car went on to have a respectable number of miles of heavy detonation, months of abuse, before a rod bearing failed. No melted pistons. I'm really not buying into A. Graham Bell's writeup there... I have a ton of empirical data that disproves that theory with astounding evidence, at least in the VG30DETT.. Didn't he invent the telephone anyway? LOL
