It wasnt the fact that its cheap its the fact that it stood out. Out of all the others. I didnt type in a certain price. I saw a ks for $1 and thought maybe it could be a good deal just thought id ask a opinion. Im not cheap by any means. But if people could find a ks with the same standards as the more expensive ones wouldnt you buy it to. More money doesnt always mean better quality.

Thanks eddie for not calling me cheap lol!

I also got an OEM KS from ebay for 30 bucks I think it was. Installed it a few years ago and no problems at all.

couldn't find an oem one on ebay for cheaper than $40 yesterday. what is a knock "sensor" anyway for it to cost more than $20? you don't even know when it goes bad lol
can excessive knocking destroy this sensor quicker? probably. Most max. owners don't even use premium fuel in their cars. Like i said earlier, there is a resistance test you can perform on the ks to see if it's in the proper range.
