Hi, i have a b16turbo with p28 ecu with hondata. But i want a knocksensor.
And i dont want one that changes my ignition by itself. I want an external one with a monitoring guage or something to read the knock level from(if there is any)
Is there such a unit???

thanks Jose

 

Doesnt sound like its out there...but im not sure why you would want this anyways...p28 do not have a knock board...

 

The reason i want one is that i tuned my car @ the dyno. But the temperature
varies alot here. So i'm scared that when it gets alot warmer outside, i will start detonating. And also just to be save i want a knock sensor. And i want a external one with a gauge because the p28 doesn't support this.

 

MSD makes a knock count unit, but yopu have to use an adapter to mount it to your block.

 

I'm interested as well.... Where can one buy a knock sensor that runs independantly..?

 

caspers has one but it uses a gm "microphone" style sensor. i am pondering an install on mine but i need to find a place i can put a 1/4 NPT hole to accept the sensor.

external and well trusted knock sensor and retards your timing per cylinder as well.
worth the money, it will be my next investment. bout 500 bucks or so ive seen them for.

i looked @ the savegaurd. But i dont need al the options its gives. And i dont want it to change my ignition. I just want to monitor my knock level
Does anyone use the msd one???

 

Does MSD have a knock sensor with guage?

 

Doesn't a b16 have a knock sensor? I don't know - I'm an accord guy. Anyway, what's wrong with just aquiring a knock sensor, mounting it to your block and use a volt meter to monitor. Something to datalog would be better - some volt meters do that. Just an idea.

 

b16's do but if you arent using a p30 p72 or p73, like most of us using hondata we have p28's. p28's dont use a knock sensor.
