Well I believe my tuning will keep that from happening I don't continuely push my car hard maybe 3 2 gear street pulls no track. I always use 93octane.

How can it push the injector out if its bolted in a few places. I thinks its melting then shoving the Teflon seal outward
It doesn't have to move much, and the kind of pressure the combustion chamber sees during knock would easily be enough to shift the injector around a little tiny bit, but the injector itself could be getting hot enough to melt it maybe? Is there no thermal barrier in the body of the injector to protect the seal?
