Default b20b knock sensor stuff??-p28-p72 ecu swap??

Sorry i posted the other one in the wrong place.lol MY BAD!!

Now i just figured this out the hardway... I bought a p28 ecu with the s300 allready installed for a SUPER good deal..thats why i bought it. Now i know that a p28ecu doesnt read a knock sensor. This is going on a b20b with b16 head turboed car. DAILY DRIVER!! THats my problem, summer/winter/summer/winter. I want to get rid of knock... So im willing to send my ecu of and have it assymbled in a p72 ecu. Does anyone know if i have to use a OEM knock sensor...or do they make a better one that reads alittle better?? faster??

why would you want to swap the s300 into a p72. p28's already got teh zif on it and everything.

edit: knock sensor is knock sensor. its just a crystall inside the housing. tighten it more and it should be more responsive.

I thought the p28 couldnt read the ks...maybe im just confused about the entire thing. I want to get a ks installed, i have a b20b block and a p28 hondata s300....what should i go about to install the ks?? Maybe i will rephrase the question lol

if it was tuned right you won't have that problem. but the s300 should be able to read knock anyway. ask hondata to make sure tho.
