knocksense and the LM-1?
 
From what I understand, the LM-1 does dtalogging of up to 5 signals. I also gather that the knocksense can output a 0-5V signla for knock events. My question is has anyone done this combo to verify that it will work? I would like to be able to datalog my AFRs, knock, coolant, and TPS signals, and this seems like a great way to go about it.

It will definitely Log it if the signal is 0-5v depending on the amount of knock.

Aftermarket knock sensors aren't that good to pick up knock in all the engine noise, can also be a turbo killer if the ignition is retarded for too long. But well adjusted they work, here an option

What about using something like that and tying it into the car's audio system, has anyone done this? I'm not really asking if it can be done, because I know it can. Would it work well is what I want to hear.

Well I was just thinking it would be easier and more legal than driving with headphones on. I'll try it when I put the turbo on.
