Why does the Engine Analyzer and the Engine Analyzer Pro give different results for detonation (spark knock)?
The 2 programs work differently: EA30 retards spark to not allow detonation to occur. EA30 does not report detonation level, just spark advance. EA Pro runs the spark curve you give it or one it believes will produce best power and just reports the detonation level. Behind the scenes, the 2 program’s calculations are quite different, especially how they determine detonation levels. As we say for both, you can not use the absolute levels of detonation (or spark curve in EA30) to tune your engine, just use them to see trends. This cam or CR will produce about this much more or less detonation.
