2012 R3R-Engine Knocking/Ping around 2000 RPM-FIXED

That is just amazing. Glad it turned out to be something so simple. No harm to the engine. Just the nerves.

Yes sir! It is a relief that there is no engine damage. This beast is going to stay in my collection. Time for RamAir Kit

Glad it was a simple fix. Another thing to be aware of is the noise change if you remove the intake snorkel and plumbing for pod filters, or possibly a ram air. The valve train clatter can then be heard making it sound like a heard of crickets when you rev up. I put the pods on and that was a whole new noise I wasn't prepared for, but it's always there and muffled by the snorkel.

Absolutely- I posted about that very thing years ago. Sounded like wood peckers!

These growl like some kind of animal upon acceleration. It alarmed me at first but now it it one of my favorite sounds.

Hey Doc, which K/N's are those?

410’s maybe it’s been a while. I think Warp and Steel have the 440’s but I did not need that much air for the Lush pistons and cams with the Bryant pipe.
