my 98 v4 sti only running 0.7 bar any ideas
Hi I've just fitted a boost gauge on my 98 sti as it doesn't seem as quick as it should be and it's only running 0.7 bar im sure it should be around 1.0-1.1 Bar. Any ideas anyone? Thanks

It is set to 0.9 and will tail off to 0.7ish when flat out..
Will only be a bar or above if mapped for it or boost controller fitted...
Sounds spot on to me as its not dropping boost..

All your pipes on right way...?
Has it always ran well..? As its not far off standard
.2 of a bar is not much mate.... You could just fit boost con if you want more power..
But best just to get it mapped and raise boost that way.....
Don't be to worried as it runs sweet and it works ....

Scooby Clinic also said due to it having a recon bottom end fitted the compression ratio maybe slightly different, only way to sort it is with a map. Maybe remap time soon :-)

Update, all fixed and boosting harder than ever, it was the split turbo intake house where it jubilees to the turbo causing unmeasured air to go in the engine putting the ecu in low boost.
