Whats the knock reading? The PFC can be set to flash the CEL when a certain knock level is reached.

Get it mapped to your car, every car is different, even the same models

as said it needs to be mapped to your car. If you got the commander I would knock a few degrees of igntion timing off

Can you ellaborate more on when the CEL comes on / goes off.
If it's when stationary and then goes off when driving only to return when idling, it may be TPS voltage (which menas you TPS needs a slight tweak).

Also keep a close eye on the knock reading if you have the commander.
But best advice of all is to get it professionally checked. Not necesarily mapped but at least checked.
