half boost
 
Driving back from my girlfriends to day and the car was boosting as normal then all of a sudden whilst giving it some stick the car dropped to 0.5 bar of boost and this carried on for about 5 mins of me flooring the loud pedal and still only half boost but you can see it trying to get past 0.5 bar and creeping toward 0.6.
another 5 miles down the road and hey presto back to normal again and boosting perfectly to 0.9 bar.
my car is a 95 wrx and has a full decat, pipercross ind kit and a baileys dv26 dump valve.
any ideas lads as its very annoying :wonder:

yeah but surely if it has gone into limp mode then it would have stayed on limp mode for the whole drive, whereas the car was back to normal after 5 miles down the road:confused:
Im confused as when my last scoob was in limp mode it stayed at half boost for the whole drive.
can it maybe be the dump vlave leaking???
i have the baileys unit on the scoob which im changing for a turbox rfl unit this week.
anyone?????
