Default Help! PE TT Knocking

Hey bros sorry to bug you guys. Anyways Heres my problem I just had PE TT installed with the following... RC 550 injectors, AAM fuel kit, clutch, 255 fuel pump, Greddy EU, e-01 boost controller, AF guage ect... Its was boosting 9 on the dyno but on the street it hit 9.9psi. It starts knocking somewhere after 6000 sometimes around 4000 and sometimes after I shift and sometimes its fine. The stock ECU is pulling some hard timmingwhen this happens. It put down 456rwhp, but today I went back because it was just not pulling to red line without some drama happening. They retuned it to 430rwhp its better but it still knocks a bit? My Greddy EU does not have the UTEC knock control feature, do you guys think that would solve the problem?? Yeah I am new to the tunning bit so bare with me.. Zimbo if you read this did you upgrade the actuator springs on these turbos?

Thanks...

Hmmm..........Well when i first had my TT installed I had your same issue until went to a different tuner recommended by Shariff and problem fixed. At the time I had the EU as well and he was able t fix the knocking.

Sharif is the man, he'll get your tune right!

And yes the UTEC would be a better alternative to the EU

Wow, looking at your sig, I am almost going the exact same route.
Did you get AAM's 2.5" or 3.0"(marketed for Greddy) test pipes?
