Is it okay to take this bolt out? Also High Knock Control.

[FlexOmar]

So last year I went in to change my tires at a local shop. When I got there everything was going as normal I showed up already chosen the tires I wanted. Gave them the keys only to wait about 1.5 hours and still no sign of car being done, by the time it came out the tires were fixed but this big bolt was replaced since the bolt I put on there was half way on. Now it didn't give me any problems but now my car is experiencing high knock count even when driving regular speeds/steady traffic. My car is full bolt on with PRL Intercooler, Charge Pipes, High Volume Intake, DownPipe.

Is that the bolt that holds the rigid charge pipe? I would check my connections, a slight boost leak was probably created when the pipe shifted while tightening up the bolt.

Indeed that bracket mounts the rigid charge pipe to some part that I'm not familiar with. Any ideas?

It just holds the rigid charge pipe to the engine. I would check my connections since someone was obvioussly messing with the charge pipes and could have introduced a slight boost leak. Check your connections.

Sounds like a tricky situation. Hope you get it sorted soon!
