"Interesting. Occasionally I get a car that produces too much mechanical
noise, the spectrum of which falls in the same frequency as knock. If the
racket is loud enough than all bets are off since what is being detected is
basically a sound frequency of a short duration. There is away to take down the overall sensitivity vie external pot. See the attached file.
I take my 740 Volvo to 6200 RPM making 338hp at 18lb of boost and I do not
