NEED HELP, no really do
right people i bought a wrx about a year ago, last owner had put a blitz Dual Boost Controller on it the solenoid has gone bad so have decided to ditch it and put it back to stock.
I spent today putting it back to standard with new vacuum hoses, the problem i have is when i put my foot down it will hit 15psi on my gauge. I wont lift ill keep my foot down and it will drop down to 10psi then will boost back to 15psi then drop down to 10psi and back up again and so on it wont hold boost.
I never had the old resrictor pill and my mate had one spare the only trouble is hes now told me its a 1.0mm prodrive one and not the standard 1.2mm could this be causing the problem or my it be something else.

thanks for the advice tony. Been out in the rain today to sort it, drilled it to 1.2mm and its like driving a different car dont know why the last owner ever fitted the boost controller if he wasnt going to set it up right.
