I think its the factory std Boost controller!

My understanding is that off the wastegate I should just hit 0.5bar as a 2.5 I know does and it doesn't have this.

As I have a boost controller in my line up and a boost trim, I think this one upsets the control a little making the boost peak to much.

If you guys agree with me then I'll take it out and use the ECU one as I can then adjust my boost from 0.5bar to 1bar with the boost trim I have.

Oh Ok, Cheers Gadge.

If the factory was 0.77bar on the 2.5s why would my mates one be 0.5, would that just be under adjusted wastegates?

When Noble motorsport do there conversions on the 3ltr cars, how is it 0.5bar when switch is off and 0.9bar when on. I don't belive they are putting a boost controller in or does the 3ltr have one already?

Martin,
I don't the gauge is the most accurate one in the world...your mate's car could be making .7 or .8 but only reading .5.

Deffo 0.5 as thats what was showing on the Dyno.

Del, you forget mines only a 2.5 so I need a little more boost to get it to 3R std Power, you know the one that has a 3R on the back, you've seen it often. lol
