Abstract
A knock control system for a supercharged engine comprising a supercharger for providing a super charged air to the engine, an engine condition detector for detecting an engine operating condition, a knock detector for detecting the occurrence of engine knocking, an ignition timing determining unit, a supercharged pressure regulator, an ignition timing correcting unit, and a supercharged pressure correcting unit. The timing determining unit is operable to determine a principle ignition timing in response to an output from the condition detector, and the timing correcting unit is operable in response to an output from the knock detector to adjust the principle ignition timing in the event of occurrence of the knocking.
