some computers do need the knock sensor for vtec to work. mostly because you'll be throwing code 23. I had the same problem and to replace it was over a 100 bucks at honda. Its kinda hard to see unless your under the car. Just reach your hand under your intake manifold and you should feel the sensor. I believe it will have one wire coming out.

P28 doesnt look for a KS, but the KS is located on the backside of yer engine right below the intake manifold. Here's an image of a B18C KS, which is in a similar location on your H22, and its normally a black color...



you dont need the IAB's hooked up in order for VTEC to work.

Any thoughts on running a p28 and still having a way to use the stock knock sensor with a remote setup to deal/monitor knock?

Meh... ballah. I've had a custom setup suggested and thinking of giving it a shot... I hope I can remember all my engineering stuff and pull it off.
