Im still a firm believer that Lightnings need knock sensors.
We have them in the S/C 3800 GM cars (Grand prix gtp, regal GS) and we count on them all the time due to having no intercooler from the factory. We have the ability to see how much knock retard we are getting and take appropriate steps to get it down to 0 via tuning and supporting mods.
