Anyone place the knock sensor on #2 rotor housing?

As we all know, it resides on #1 rotor housing from the factory.

However, it seems to make more sense to place it on #2 since statistically that is the rotor that tends to kaboom more often than #1 (probably due to it having being more "insulated" against heat dissipation).

ANyone try this?

feedback?

I like to hear from the folks that have a PFC or something that can read the knock reading deltas between the 2 location.

I'm not sure about the US model FD wiring harness, but on my motor, the wiring harness doesn't stretch that far.

I think some of the PFS PMS guys have done this as apparently the PMS goes crazy sometimes with it in the #1 housing.
