Question

All,

Saw on here a while ago a picture that showed the connection point for the boost gauge.

Anyone know where I might find it, or has a picture?

Cheers Phill C

You didn't break you hand on the first atempt did you???

I'm glad the link was of use!

Are you now going to post whether your car should be holding that level of boost???

Cheers

Andy,

No, broke my hand fighting a pine door with my blackthorn goggles on Don't ask!!!

Holding 1.1 bar on full boast. -0.7 on deceleration, -0.5 to 0 on constant speed / mild acceleration.

Is that about right ?

Cheers Phill C

Andy,

Peaks at 1.1 bar slowly dropping to 1.0 bar then tails off at 5500 revs.

Car is UK MY00 with a ITG filter and a Scooby sport back box. Apart from that standard.

I want to get the car on the rollers now

Well pleased. Think I'll get the oil temp and pressure at national RS owners meet.

Cheers Phill C

Phill,

What year of car is it? Japanese or UK/Euro? Any breathing mods?

Is that a peak figure of 1.1 bar, or a holding figure?? About 16psi, not bad!!

Cheers
Andy
