ok thank you i just got link ive watched all the videos from ecmlink.com just a little bit conusing i never really tuned before. Would the front o2 be bad reading that low of voltage? Why would the knock sensor read bad when i just replaced it with an oem one, it was torqued to 17lbs
 
Knock sensor shouldn't even show up until the set parameters are met. IE./ 2200 rpm and throttle position > 35%
