Interceptor parameters

Just installed my inceptor gauge and man its awesome! So much stuff it can do and only able to have 2 displayed. What are you guys set to scanning? I have knock retard and injector pulse width. Also I'm wondering can I use the gauge to find out if I have a dirty MAF sensor?

Also for people who still get the P0171 code...Have you ever used your interceptor to check DTCs and say you are throwing P0171 but there is no check engine light? Mine did that today....weird.

if your modding you need to be watching knock retard.
Its a parameter that shows how much timing your computer is pulling to account for detected knock.

If you have alot of knock and continue to run your car with that knock....engine goes boom.

best case scenario, you want none. That usually not possible, if your not going wot, some is okay. Going wot you want as little as possible.
