Just replaced the alternator and now a CEL!

Hey guys well my max has been sitting for a couple weeks waiting for us to have time to replace the alternator. So we replaced it today (my dad & I) and what a pleasant surprise a CEL! So I took it for a test drive and it seemed a little sluggish, then I drove to autozone to get the codes pulled. The guy pulled a Map sensor code and a Knock sensor code... Car drove like a champ before this, actually the alty died 2 weeks after I did ALL the maintenance items to the car. I think it hates me.. Any ideas? Thanks

I say clear out the codes and drive on. If they come back then you might wanna change the knock sensor.
