Knocklink sensor or APEXi S-AFC II
Hello all.
I am looking for something that will warn me of any knocking. I have seen two devices so far, the knocklink sensor and have read that the APEXi S-AFC II detects and warns of knocking aswell (see below).
Which of these would be best.
KNOCKING MONITOR
The new S-AFC II has a new knock sensor function that can be set to alert the driver of knocking ensuring that the correct air/fuel ratio is used at every stage. This function can only be used on vehicles that are equipped with an engine knock sensor.
Thanks In advance.

The primary purpose of the Apexi is to govern fuelling, and is a bit pricey if you just want knock detection.
The KL is tried and tested, and can be had for £130-£150. It uses its own separate knock sensor too, where the Apexi taps into the existing one.
I would go KL.

The one fitted is ok, but better to use a separate one IMHO, which is what the KL kit uses.
The KL is very popular on here.
