What ECU are you using to run the motor? If you are using an ECU that is looking for a knock sensor, then yes, it needs to be wired up.
No, evap purge isnt necesary to running the motor, but it is crucial for inspection and emissions and aids in gas milage.

yeah i noticed my gas milage is pretty crapy.. and im useing a p28 chipped with a chip for a stock b16. so pretty much the comp is a stock b16
Well, unless the Knock was eliminated, yes, the p28 will be looking for a knock sensor signal. Its also good to have the EVAP hooked up correctly.
Bad gas milage can also be due to a worn/defficient primary 02 sensor, a malfunctioning map sensor, and just a bad tune overall. Things such as worn plugs, bad spark wires, worn dizzy, ect, will all kill gas milage if they are not kept up with in maintenance.
