Get a retune asap... if you keep that up you'll end up with a broken engine.

Dial back the boost and baby it for now until you can get a proper re-tune

But Ant doesnt use knock gear, and that would seem an important thing to note with your current predicament

Ant does use knock gear Adam, headphones and microphone if he needs to. Also, power FC's will show a decent level of knock on the commander well before any real knock occurs.. My two skylines would show anything up to 50 on the commander but absolutely no detonation was occuring.. It picks up other noise...

Chat to a tuner who knows PFC's well and the'll say the same thing.

***Disclaimer, I'm not saying your car isn't detonating atm, get it checked asap to be safe.***
