Sarnia,
ok heres the thing, ive been constantly battling with my g4cs to eliminate knock above 15 psi with my SBR t67. Long story short i always had knock above 15 psi.

So i went and did my routine maintenance, change my timing belt, idler and tensioner all which appear to be fine... reset my base timing and completely restarted my tune because the base timing was out after the timing belt install. (im not sure if it was out before or not)

NoW.... i am running 20psi and 18 degrees of timing my wideband shows 11:1 all the way through a pull.... my dsmlink logs show about .4 degrees retard MAX. what i am asking is... can a bad knock sensor just stop registering knock or am i just being paranoid?
i hope im just being paranoid because WOW does this car ever work good now. heh
thanks for all your help guys

by the way the car is a 2.4Lg4cs w/650 FIC, sbr T67, FMIC, Wally 255, DSMlink v2.5, 3" Turbo Back, comp 200 cams, Ported SBR Manifold, GM MAF w/ MAFT
