Has anyone used this one from MachV ? I heard that you need to use an dealer only sensor, but from what i read its just as good with alot of added benefits. And its cheaper than the ones they sell at advance auto/autozone.
Do you need to use an OEM knock sensor too? And finally, if i were to use an ACT clutch, i have read where you need to use a OEM throwout bearing, but i have read also that ACT changed their TOB so its just as good? Any one have a definate answer to that? Thanks -------------------- 2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS- Pretty daily driver

while I'm not challenging gsx here, but, i have personally seen 5+ cars that have had problems with bosch o2 sensors... we won't install them, period, at the shop. oem only.
the tob on the act, i did some research and ran into a lot of argument... so i went tried and true no argument o.e.m. if you are shelling out that much for a new act.... you might as well... i can't remember exactly what the differences were now, but about 6 months ago i ordered a new act from prostreet... it's tob was different, and 'engineerically' discussed as inferior with out testing. my .02 -------------------- game over.
