Title: Is this boost creep? Or just more boost?
Post by: probedb on April 02, 2006, 12:29:18 PM
Since I\'ve put my nice shiny Defi gauges in I can actually see how the car is boosting.

It peaks at 0.9bar (peak hold is a nice feature!) and I think it just drops down to 0.7 then back to 0.9ish.

I\'m wondering if someone has upped the boost as I thought the normal pattern was 0.7-0.5-0.7?

I\'m sure someone will point something out at the dyno but I just don\'t want something bad happening because of too much boost.

I always seem to have lots of questions :)

Cheers anyways!

Anyone got any thoughts?

At a guess, I\'d say that seems logical, as it\'s still doing the same 0.2 drop in between.

Cheers. Hope the engine is ok with that as I thought it was standard!

Got any induction/ehxuast mods?

Aye, it has HKS induction and exhaust but that\'s it....as far as I\'m aware anyways. No decat or mid-pipe as far as I\'m aware though. I really need to get under the car and check everything really.
