2.2 bar????

I think 2.2bar works out to be around 31-32psi whichs sounds like a massive amount of boost . You want to get it booked in for a look.

Running like a bag of smashed pumpkins sounds real bad
good luck, hope not too expensive.

2.2bar
no wonder it sounds like a bag of smashed pumpkins lol
1.2 is high enough on a standard engine.

This may be a gauge that reads atmospheric as 1 bar, i.e. 1 nominal plus 1.2, as opposed to pressure above atmospheric.....I hope....if not we've found your problem.

Might be highly modified..... however, you would have thought that someone with an engine at that spec would know a bit about it.

We may never know.

What we *do* know is that you're walking for the time being.

I think you just hit the fuel cut. It'll be fine, go for a drive now.

Why are you only running 2.2 bar ? I'm running 18 bar on mine.
