well, for what its worth, and GT we were talking bout this last night, ill probably just run the sensor on the block at around #5... as the back of the block does get hotter, and is more likely to incur detonation back there.

ill then run a second sensor up the front mount from which ill run my own black box with an LED on the dash letting me know exactly whats going on in the fron 3 cyls at least.

the problem i see with temporal summation of 2 sensors (if i were going to do that) is that the ecu would never get a chance to back off the timing retard... thus not getting the most out of the engine... it'd be wrapped in cotton wool so to speak, overly cautious timing.

out of curiosity..,. when does the cu run in open and closed loop modes? i thought it was open only during warm up, then once she hit operating temp, bang into closed loop??

QUESTION: is there any way to get the ecu to run in open loop mode full time? i reckon that would be the way to go. screw standardised emmsions and ignition curves, i want to see the engine run with full performance feedback.

cheers
ed
