The pcm can only interpret the values its fed to the knock module inside the pcm. There is no where in the tuning to change what that piece of hardware has to see. You can use a lt4 knock module with either sensor. You wont have to change a knock sensor if you have a lt4 knock module. The lt4 knock module is no longer made. If you find one for sale you pay a premium. That is why it is best to replace the sensor with the correct one. It will set a code and take 10 degrees of timing out.
    Im telling u what Herter said. Thats all. Ive never opened tuning software...nor will i ever. I do have an lt4 knock module tho, it was one of the first mods i made to the car knowing what the future held.

    With the lt4 knock module it is fine. Otherwise there is no other way. The frequency and ohms is not even close. Since there was no lt4 knock sensor the module was able to compensate for the differences. If he knew that you had the module then it was good to go. only thing that can be done with each respective knock sensor is what they call desensitizing. You basically can limit how much knock retard it can pull.
