When the car is warm I can only get 0.5 bar boost and then after
20 minutes it will hit 1.1 bar. I have got a K&N iduction kit I
think its that which is triggering it off? Someone please help if
you know the answerto this problem.
Kind Regards

Jav,
Does this always happen or just sometimes? And is it always 20 mins or does it vary, and what MY? My MY98 has a similar problem, sometimes but for a much shorter period. I know I have a small up-pipe leak which seals when warm, and my guess is that this screws up the lambda readings and the ecu limits the boost. As soon as the leaks seals and the exhaust gasses come clean the ecu reverts to normal behaviour. Anyone think this is feasible?
