so those of you with 5S-FTE's how do you monitor knock while tuning and every day driving?

Thanks Alltracman. I was aware that OBD had nothing to do with it but I did know that the ECU's handle timing differently [Try changing your base timing on both and keep the light on for a few minutes afterwards and you will see what I mean] so I wasn't sure if it was within the capabilities of the older ECUs.
Makes sense tho - what would it need the knock sensor for if it had no way to use it's output. --------------------  ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM)  Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
