would double check the wiring, it is quite easy to have it connected to the wrong ecu wires as the manual isnt the clearest.

You need to tell the PFC.. ie. change the boost control kit setting.

COM to actuator, NO to compressor cover.. T the MAP sensor into the original map sensor connection.. block any pipes to the induction if removing the original solenoid.

No offence, but, some spelling and puctuation, wouldn't go amiss. I'll let you fill in the comma's full stops etc.

I didn't know you were dyslexic(sp).

Most new people posting on here can't spell for **** and have never heard of grammar, nearly always text speak which I'm now too old to understand

I apologise wrxjay, sorry

Assuming the PowerFC on the car has been mapping then you really need to stick with the boost setting it was mapped to.. otherwise you are likely to run lean or det.

Not just saying that because I map them.

I assume you were running low boost previously because you commented that 1.14bar was lots.. so first set the boost and duty to the same settings, you need to turn the learn off and set it up for the car.. ie. number of cylinders etc..

Watch the Knock reading on the commander and the Injection Duty so you don't max the injectors out, along with the MAF sensor airflow voltage as you don;t want to max that out either.

Simon

PS: I never noticed the spelling..
