[StockSolara]

If it has blown you should replace it

[thakidd]

once its goes its gone,it will stay off for a few and then it will just get worse.........

[SC V6]

yeah.. once blown.. it will never be the same.. it will eventually do it again

[thakidd]

just curious which sensor blew bank 1 or bank 2...........

[Hsakuragi]

Man, that sucks. Rizal just mentioned to me today about a GM modified knock sensor if I want to raise boost. I'd hit him up for more info...

[lazyboyz69]

how much is the toyota knock senor?

[thakidd]

Umm...

Its gonna take more work than just a knock sensor upgrade to run higher boost safely. Just check out Gabe's car. It might have worked out for him.

is it safe to drive around with a blown knock sensor?

[Hsakuragi]

so lazyboy, were u just driving normally?

i'm asking because i'm wondering does it blew whenever it feels like it or you are puttting it to the limit in order to blew it..

it should be save to drive around, but ur will not have any power...

[lazyboyz69]

i was just driving around... but the day before that i was driving really fast with very low gas....
