Thread: Has anyone relocated knock sensor?

Has anyone attempted to relocate the detonation/knock sensor on the sr20's? If so how did it workout?

Depends on where you mount it and for what purpose. Is it to make it more or less sensitive?

I have mine hanging in free air. Works for my purpose, which is to make it less sensitive and to get the maximum timing. What you don't want to do is to disconnect the plug wire from the knock sensor. The ecu will go to a conservative tune and pull back the timing.

I did this on my old N/A motor. Worked out fine.

Okay. I was thinking of relocating mine near the valve cover or by the distributor.
