Tbho mate that seems a little high,mine only go's too around 12-17 on full chat with occasional 20 odd if i really belt it:norty::norty: and just pottering around it doesn't really register anything maybe 5 or so

i think it depends on engine and spec as well, but if that was on my car, i would be looking to find out as well.

has it all ways been like this, or has it just started?

any other simptons?

Same here,i was told by my mapper that if levels of 40 plus where seen regular then come see him and if the light blinked to say the 45 marker was reached to stay off the boost till its been looked at!

BBB3 22 March 2011 09:31 PM

i have never had a flicker of the light, it was set at 45 but i had it mapped again last week ( 352 bhp ) and he lowered it to 25 as he said 'i know you're a worrier' :lol1: i thinks it best to be safe then sorry... :lol1:

prodriverules 22 March 2011 09:59 PM

Ive never had a flicker either,highest ive seen was 28 when i hit the limiter in 3rd once or twice maybe:norty::lol1:

BBB3 22 March 2011 11:26 PM

my mapper did say it will go crazy if you hit the limiter...but i havent not yet ;)
