Anyone on here ever changed a knock sensor on a evo 8? Looks like a ***** to get to what needs to be removed or can it be changed with everthing still in place?

 

bump for more info as well

 

If I remember correctly, there's a bracket that attaches to the intake that's in the way, as well as some EGR piping. Not sure if you can work around those items, but if they are removed, or at least moved out of the way, the knock sensor should be fully accessible. Curious now, please post how it goes...

 

if you remove the battery and the battery tray and the upper IC pipe you should be able to reach it.
