Straightboost Performance wideband knock sensor kits are specifically designed to work with the sophisticated knock detection circuits in many modern ECUs, such as the FuelTech, ECUMaster EMU, Link, Haltech, Microtech, DTA Fast, Megasquirt and many others. The knock processing chip in most of these ECUs are designed to take advantage of wideband, or flat response, knock sensors. For many years most knock sensors were designed to generate an output voltage only around a preset frequency based on engine characteristics, this was a limiting factor for signal processing. The drawbacks those older OEM sensors were their inability to separate knock from noise. With these modern ECUs with state of the art signal processing, wideband sensors can be used, allowing the EMU to process the signal in its full range and look only for sounds that actually represent knock. The EMU is also able to filter the signal by crank degrees so that it only monitors the sensors at engine positions where knock is likely to occur. The use of Straightboost Performance wideband knock sensors allows for greater sensitivity to knock and greater control of the engine, allowing the tuner to maximize power output with the confidence that the EMU will employ engine protection strategies when knock is detected.
Flat response knock sensors can be used on any engine, but please verify the thread size/pitch before ordering.

Great product, fit perfect with my Bosch donut sensor. Nut is high quality and won’t back out either. Shipping was fast.
