^Thats my understanding of it.
I would just get one because it isnt very expensive and you will know your not having false knock issues and wha tnot especially since you have a hotcam and 1.6rr's. I dunno if ur car was tuned or not but if it was, they could have desensatized the knock sensor therefore the stock one is working for you.

Yea you can have your KS/KM totally bypassed but If your engine does have true knock and pinging then your gonna eventually do some damage! The KM picks up the knock and tells the PCM to retard timing so the engine will run in a limp mode as a precautionary measure. Therefore hurting performance by bogging the engine under load at at certain RPM!

The LT4 Knock Module is just a better filter at weeding out the the good knock (Roller Rockers and Solid Roller Cams and anything else) from the bad knock. Yes it can be done in the tune and it can also be used along with the tune. Bottom line it is just a filter, if you do not have any extra noise it will not do anything for you at all. They wouldn't have used it in the LT4 if it didn't provide some type of use.
