55 degrees this morning.... KNOCK!
is this what im to expect when the Summer starts to wind down and the mornings get cool? am i going to have to be constantly tuning until the Winter? should i have a few different maps to use each 15 degree temp drop? ive not tried CLB tuning yet, but ive researched and it doesnt seem that it compensates *that* much for temperature changes. im at Stage 4 (VF-30) with stock TMIC.

Yes this is normal. Colder air = denser air thus leaner conditions which in turn = knock.
Back when the UTEC wasn't around WRX owners were having to turn down their boost controllers a pound or two during the winter months. Now with UTEC's, Xede, and other forms of aftermarket engine managment this is becoming all too common to have multiple maps throughout the year for varying weather conditions.
Owning a UTEC, I would have thought you would have known this?
