MS3 and knock sensors

[hrforever]

I'm part way thru sorting all the wires and plugs for my MS3 V3 with MS3X expansion board and was wondering about the 2 knock sensors in the valley of the 1995 1UZ motor. Are these used/connected to the MS3 or does the newly released knock sensor module have to be bought to handle this?

This link shows the module:

Stock ms3 no, knock module yes but I'm not sure if the Lexus sensors are of the correct values that the knock module can monitor. Knock sensors are more of a too late sensor if you're boosting. Have a competent tuner tune it on a dyno and don't worry about it

Thanks. The use of these sensors has never been discussed in any of the aftermarket ecu installs and it had me wondering why. It was always my intention to dyno after the install was done but thought the use of the sensors might be good insurance. Might investigate the values of the standard items anyway.
