Default Cheap LT4KM?

Is there a place to get one? I've got 4,000,000 degrees of false knock. I drive backwards in 'D.'

Summit has them for $75. I called a friend that works at a GM dealer and he said GM cost is $75, so its probably the best price anywhere.

agreed. unless you just send your PCM out to get tuned. The tuner should be able to desensitize the knock sensor.

Sounds like you already have a datalogging cable(which everyone should own IMO) so you should desensitize it through the tune.

It is easy to do, just be absolutely sure it is false knock. I forget the exact names but the process is simple trial and error. Lower the table values that control how much it pulls, and raise how much it gains. Essentially does the same thing as the LT4 KM but is nearly infinitely adjustable .
