Default Defi controller - spak-attack !

Odd one this, when my boost gauge goes clean off the clock the V.II. Defi controller appears to lose the plot and change the differential pressure setting for my fuel pressure gauge...

"So what ?", I hear you cry...

Well next thing I get an alarm and panic...

Anyone else had problems with the Defi controller V.II. ?

TIA

never had my boost gauge go off the clock but it must be good fun having more than 2 bar of boost. Never thought impreza engines were strong enough for that. Had a 2 bar boost spike on a cossie and that was fun. It was a low compression engine though so was like an on off switch. Boost is very addictive.

Dunx: if your boost gauge has gone off the clock, maybe the controller lost contact with it and performed a reset?

You still coming Tuesday?

I have a very simular problem

I hit 2 bar ( or very close to ) and its as if the gauge resets it self, goes to 0 and starts again

not the best as at 2 bar your eyes should be firmly on the road ahead

Well at least I've found the boost problem, a kinked pipe to the actuator...

Hopefully the last of that gremlin.
