The knock sensor is just a microphone. I'm not sure how much control you have over it in the stock ECU, but in the Hydra you can set the rpm cut off as well as the threshold... in that way you can probably bump up the rpm and tweak the threshold to exclude the additional noise but still pick up the knock if it's loud enough.
