what have you done to your car that might be causing it to knock?

Talk to Mike, that's who I was telling you about especially since you're both in the East Bay.

For the meantime I would say go back to stock bov and a stock map. I ran uppipe & tbe for almost a year w/ no problems, but I was on a completley stock ecu and stock bov. Hopefully that will get rid of the knocking and buy you some time temporarily so you can set up a day / time to get your turbo / inj. installed.

What jeff said. Put on your stock BOV.... with your mods listed you don't need an aftermarket one. The oem one works best unless your running over 20 psi. If you change it might help
