WOT run with HHR SS, KR present...suggestions?
 
To give you a brief history, I just got fully bolted and dynoed with a hypertech tune. My dyno results were 292 WHP and 336 WTQ. Anyways I have a dashhawk and have an alert for KR when it's >1.0. Upon normal/slightly aggressive driving my screen will occasionally blip with an alert, well after a 4500 rpm run and letting the engine slow down it flashed with KR 2.5-3.0 then went away after a second. So I've been keeping a closer eye on it now.
Well on my way home today I was in the middle lane on the highway and had to get into the right lane for my exit a mile away. In the right lane was an HHR SS that I was coming up on, just as I slowly pass I drop it into fifth and run about 5psi @80 mph to get by. He doesn't like this and floors it, so I drop into 4th and at first he was gaining ground but I started to pull away (Not as fast as I thought I should) as I got into 5th. Well I see my DH light up yellow and look down and I have a KR of 1.1 continuously throught the gear. I shut down probably around 125 mph and get into the right lane then exit.
So my question is should I be terribly worried about the KR? If so I hopefully could tune it out with an AP. I have heard of people having a DJ tune, I'm guessing that this is a Cobb AP e-tune from a guy named DJ?? How do I contact him and how much does this usually cost? Also I'm pretty sure that HHR was not stock as it put up a decent fight...Any opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks

How do you get your dashhawk to display indecimal degrees?

I just selected the Knock Retard Parameter under the Mazda selections in the computer program. I'm guessing for some reason yours is just whole numbers?

I have heard of them, do they just keep the injector sealed more tightly so you don't lose cylinder pressure? And this issue could cause KR?

It is. I've had to configure everything on the unit. I run a Mac and the software isn't supported. The parameter is "actual timing" or "actual advance" or something on the unit selctin field, and then displays as knk retard. Stupid.

Damn that sucks...I have 3 computers and the software only works on my old shitty one. The software does not like newer operating systems/macs apparently.

I don't think anything <2 is really all that cause for concern tbh.

Yea that's what I'm wondering because I have been pretty happy with the hypertech tune so far...I don't want to have to spend the money on an AP if I don't have to.
