Disassemble, inspect, and clean the MBC.

Im thinking maybe the gauge is a little off b/c 29psi is kind of big for the amount of exhaust gas you get from a 2 step. Its been known that some gauges go to sh|t after a while. If it smells like fuel then you are probably knocking for sure....unless you have some kind of a fuel leak.

Take it off and run off WG pressure just to see what your gauge reads. should be just under 1 bar at full boost

I believe thats how you do it, in which case the WG isn't connected to anything, then you should be hitting i believe 11-12 psi on the stock turbo, somebody can correct me if im wrong, its been a while since the stock turbo says for me.

jeez it has nothing to do with boost control. you were on 2-step for to long timming got pulled and unburnt fuel was exploding in your manifold. not a very smart thing to do btw...

Correct, half the fuel is unburnt out the exhaust and explodes before the turbine blades.

Why are you laughing... 10-15 seconds on 2-step will cause problems and in some cases cause knock to be detected. BTW here is my personal car with 15 degrees of ignition retarded.

Those are 15+psi spikes within 2-3 seconds. You don't need to to rev any longer than that.

dude nothing is up with that... you yourself admit your car stalls. How is that good for your car and you can't launch it either. That tells me your **** doesn't work. Your car just like EVIL_EVO_VIII is having its timing pulled due to the detection of knock.

When this happens, is the car actually knocking or is it just detecting the fuel in the exhaust exploding?
