scooby ecu boost
 
Does the scooby ecu only boost to 1.1 bar when used with a full decat or should it be 1.1 regardless, mine is running at 0.8 presuming the boost guage is o.k. can`t find fault with the car other than this.

0.8 bar sounds like standard boost - did you fit the scoobyecu? If so did you cut the link marked J1 in the ECU?

Cheers

was done by david wallis, i`m not pointing the finger at the ecu but it does seem to be low on boost so i`m after suggestions. `All the pipes seem o.k. , i`ve cleaned the boost solenoid, dump valve etc, neither of which were dirty anyway. I`ve checked wastegate for free play and thats o.k.
Don`t know what to try next.

come on guys, give us a clue.

Could be a weak wastegate actuator :confused: not holding the boost??. Easy fix go for a dawes :)

cheers for the suggestion jonh, 99% sure there`s no mechanical fault on the car. Its just running standard, had the guys from jap innovations drive it today (very helpfull) and can`t fault the car. going to try another ecu off david.
