749, Knock sensor!?!?
Posted by BoostnRS, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I was wondering if anyone knows which wire going to the ECU is the one for the stock knock sensor we have in our cars.

I want to be able to identify this wire and use it to install an LED light on my dash that will let me know when the knock sensor is retarding timing due to detonation..

thanks!

Additionally has anyone looked into using a J&S Knocksensor?
Those run about $500.. Im wondering if would be able to run more boost with stock internals if we invested in one of these...

Any comments ??

the stock KNOCK sensor is in the back of the engine...couldn't you tap a wire to that?

or am I totally dreaming here.....

there's only two wires on that sensor...so you have 50/50 chance of getting it right in the first place

heheh
