From my understanding there is a difference between how sensitive the OEM ECU reads the knock sensor and how sensitive Ecutek reads the knock sensor. Sometimes the Ecutek software detects knock even when the OEM ECU does not. This discrepancy is the problem a few folks are encountering IINM. So it's really just a software programming thing and not the actual sensor sensitivity - I realize I did not post that clearly at all. Also, please note that I'm no expert but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express before
