Does anyond know how long it takes for the Knock Sensor to advance the timing once you start to use Superunleaded?.

Thanks.

The knock sensor is NOT part of the 'adaptive' ECU and TCM system... it maximises performance but more importantly protects the engine from pinking so as said above must act immediately...
