Default p1 pulling timing

orite guys out in the p1 the day went to over take a car accelerated to 65mph then feathered the throttle to back to 60 and it chugged a we bit knocklink sensor lit up max then cut the boost, about 2 months ago it pulled the timing back 2 degrees cause it pickt up a knock and the frequency was down at 8 the knock count was 40 i think but after my mate had the laptop on it it was perfect no knock engine running perfect but now its done it again, just after a bit of advice guys what could be causing this its not like a miss its more a we backfire then the knocklink sensor lights up red but it only happens when your like feathering the throttle?

The temp sender could defo cause fueling problems mate,are you running an apexi by any chance?if so they are very sensitive to the reading from sensors to run right.
