Do you have to have a good opti to run LTCC?

Do you have to have a good opti to run LTCC?
I was thinking about doing the LTCC conversion but I was unsure if you have to have a good opti to start with. If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appriciated. Thanks

Well shoot. I guess I might look into trying out the new MSD opti. Ill give my friend the seach function a little bit of my time and see what I come up with. Thanks a ton guys.

Like Javier said it isn't 100% that it is the sensor. The problem maybe just with the cap and rotor. shoebox has some good stuff on his site for test if the opti is giving the correct information to the pcm.

The test connector for the opti is the 4 wire connector mounted by the evap along the passenger side of the intake manifold. I would run shoeboxe's test on the opti before you give up hope on it.

Actually from what I have read the cap and rotor are most likely the failure points instead of the optical sensors. If the opti part is in fact bad, you may be able to pick up a used one real cheap.
