U can download "knock detection" for ur torque app, it reads the knocking correction value from ecu.
Yes, Detonation breaks pistons, rings, conrods, valves.

Yes, any time you change the volumetric efficiency of an engine (in this case freeing up the exhaust breathing) your AFR's may swing outside what the ECU can compensate for.
