Boost issues-0.5 bar help?Ideas?
Hi I'm looking for any advice to what is giving me this half a bar issue, the story is I bought a classic 93 wrx, had it for a short period the oil pump failed and the big ends went. £1400 later I have a new engine fitted that runs well except only boosts to half a bar although sometimes it will just go and go and go in excess of 1 bar and is wicked cool fun. I've thought of getting a manual boost controller but fear this might just be masking an underlying problem.
Also when it does boost in excess of 0.5 and it gets to about 1.1 it starts to hessitate and misses abit and certainly doesn't seem to run to healthy.
Any ideas anyone??? Other than take it back to the garage who just don't seem to want to know. Name and shame scoobyteknix Fleetwood.

Boost controllers have a few uses but only on fit and healthy engines.
