You got any proof that the ECU is calbirated to that specific sensor?


Actually, I have heard that from people who work in Engine Calibration. However, they have to walk a very fine line regarding emmisions. If their calibration throws a false CEL, it's a big deal. You can see why they might be touchy about changing knock sensors. To someone just having fun modding their car, clearing a false CEL once in a while may or may not be a big deal.

My recommendation to ncalaskan gives him a known good setup. Your recommendation is based only on your experience with a somewhat limited sample size.
