squiffy Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 mods on the car are: (i know they wont all effect boost) hks induction kit hard pipe kit dump valve 2nd decat superdragger2 before the exhaust was fitted it was boosting 1.1-1.2. now it has risen to 1.3 when nailing it i have had a hunt but cant see a bleed valve and have had various panels off hunting for a boost controller but cant find anything? any ideas? or could the gauge be out?

JamieP Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Sounds like you need a restrictor ring;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squiffy Posted September 15, 2006 Author Share Posted September 15, 2006 i have one and it is going on tomorrow, but wasnt sure why it was so high to start with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Its getting colder, maybe the weather is affecting it? I've seen mine peak at 1.24 when i used to only have 2nd decat and cat back exhaust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I notice you have no FCD so theoretically thats impossible, unless you have one fitted without knowing! what gauge do you have and where is the boost signal for it?

squiffy Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 DOH! ignore me im being a goon! im used to my blitz gauge reading in bar, this one reads in psi thats embarrassing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 lol I take it that it was 13psi then? that's under 1 bar (something like 0.9) which is probably about right if you still have the 1st cat in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
