Turned up the dawes, brilliant in 2nd and 3rd gear but hit fuel cut in 4th and 5th this morning with the fresher air....doh!! A somewhat violent reminder that you've taken it too far but there you go!!

Turned it back down but it would be useful to know in BAR exactly where fuel cut on the standard 99 ECU is. John?

I seemed to hit it with an indicated held boost of 1.19 BAR, although I can't be sure because you'll appreciate at full boost in 5th gear I had to keep my eyes on the road

17.6 PSI or 1.21 bar.

Turn the Dawes back half a turn. If it does it again turn it another half turn. Repeat as required.
