if he's running a p28 he wont need it, since the p28 doesnt look for that particular sensor. However if you remove it from a car that does use it, it will mess up your timing and performance will be like crap....
<----RSZero1 is unhappy his KS is still not wired up, but will have it done tomorrow....

EDIT: learned this the hard way....

knock sensors are there for a reason... if you can still use it and theres use for it then use it
