Check all boost pipes are correctly fitted, diss the boost controller and clean out the standard boost controll solonoid. If this still doesnt work lengthen the actuater arm so it runs less boost.

hi it is a bcu+ boost controller and the standard boost soloniod is a two port, i have found the instructions on the internet but they are not very helpful, as i have said i haven't plumbed the boost controller soloniod in yet but i don't know where to put it, i think it is meant to go between the acuator and the boost pipe but there is a resistrictor in there so do i fit that too i just want some one that knows what there doing.
