Am considering fitting a Dawes device at some time in the future to improve boost level and hence performance.

Anyone got any opinions on this gizmo ? Can you just fit it on it's own, I have a boost gauge already - is this all I need with it ? And how much boost is safe for a standard MY98 engine ?

 

It's a simple fit, you simply adjust it to give a max of 1.1bar, although I've only set mine to 1 bar, goes well enough.
Gives full boost in all gears, as opposed to being somehow resricted in 1st and 2nd.
Buy, fit, and enjoy!!

 

Thanks Ron.

Surely more than 1 person must have an opinion on this device... ?

 

best mod for the money

 

got one fitted to my car. make sure that you have an accurate boost gauge as well as a knocklink and an AFR meter fitted. i wanted to be ultra safe so i have the boost turned down to about 1.0 bar until i get my variable rate fuel pump fitted. you will notice the boost kick in about 500 - 750 revs sooner and you will have the full boost from that range to the rev limiter. serious amount of grunt for £60. once the bits and pieces have been fitted you then can dial in as much boost as you want but i will be sticking to about 1.1 bar as i dont want an engine rebuild.

time for some 550cc injectors and a remap methinks.

cheers
