Most stock turbos last between 60-100K miles.

Apex Power-FC with Datalogit might be what you are thinking of, but you can't tune this car based on knock.

X...

You won't be able to compare knock numbers between cars (not really even two different RX7's). You can't monitor knock readings in stock form. You'll need to purchase some type of monitor to read them and generally they come with aftermarket ECU's.

As far as 1/4 times on stock turbos, I believe the fastest time recorded was around 10.98 with stock twins.

1/4 mile times have a lot more going on than just power. Around 350rwhp can make upper 11's with a good driver and good traction.

The Power FC and Commander will allow you to monitor knock readings. However, the Power FC does NOT retard timing or anything from that reading. It's display only.
