Posted this in the thread about going NA>T... well... ya..

well... I dont know what to do now... I think I just started getting a pretty bad case of rod knock.... this is rediculous.... I'm starting to get so pissed off at my car it's not even funny... I dont know what to do.... Sitting at about 850-1100rpm it's got a loud kinda clunking sound... it is almost in time with the ticking from my valves... and the knocking speeds up with the rpm to about 1500-2000rpm and then you can't hear it all that much above 2k.... I'm pretty sure it's a rod knock, the sound has a fair punch to it, kind of a flat clunking sound that you can almost feel... if not RK what else could it be?

I also noticed the sound of the knocking sound changes when I have the brakes applied.. it gets quieter.... I just had my brakes done, could this be connected?
