I didn't feel a difference, but that conversation seems to go either way when it's discussed.

That probably means you had a false knock and the LT4 KM fixed it, giving you more power.

It's a replacement for the stock knock module in your car, but it's for an LT4. It's less sensitive so that it won't pick up noises from like headers and a cam and think that it's a knock. So, it fixes the false knocks that may be occuring with your stock knock sensor and your loud exhaust for example. It usually won't improve performance unless you have a false knock, but definitely get one if you have a loud exhaust or cam.

I bought mine off ebay from Jason Cromer, you could do that or just contact him directly, although I don't know how he can be reached. The install is very easy, took me 10 minutes probably.

Sorry, you can't put the LT4 knock module in a 93, there's no place for it.
