Anyway I was bored the other night so I connected a boost gauge to the back of the BOV. I did a few laps at full throttle and was only boosting to 5 psi. I didnt check the last engine so im not sure what that was running at (standard 6.5??). Im not sure if the management side got reflashed after the new engine, but I expect that it did. ANyway anyone fitted a gauge to their standar T and what PSI did it show??PS I realise that there is a chance that my connections were dodgy and this could explain only 5psi!!! Cheers all.
