Knocking From Engine

[IH8TOADS]

thanks for the info

So for the people that still use the wastegate solenoid between the compressor housing and the waste gate, it is safe to say they run in closed loop mode and if one of the hoses were to fall off this problem that matty had had be avoided. I suppose the real question is, can the car be tuned with open loop mode with the use of the existing solenoid, or can you only use this mode (open) with a aftermarket boost controller?

Sorry for the hijack matty

The solenoid is used for both open and closed loop. The problem can be avoided if you were to use closed loop. But I'd say 95+% of tune shops use the the open loop method, so absolutely 100% NOTHING wrong with the way matty's was tuned.....just wanted to make that clear!

edit I use silicon hose and cable ties to keep mine on as im currently using an eBoost that has no protection against hoses falling off, so as blueboost suggested its a warning for us XR6 owners. Secure the hoses well and their 'shouldn't' be a problem :-)
