Hello mate. Blimey you are having a lot of problems to begin with!! I had a load of problems with mine when i first got it but stuck with it and now things are running sweetly, and i cant stop grinning for ages after i go for a drive.
Havent seen you about in Godalming, what colour is your car?
Some guys are meeting up in Guildford on sunday afternoon at the Britannia. More than welcome to come along and say HI.

Hi, welcome to the forum mate

Last year I was only getting 0.5 bar boost and it turned out to be one or more of 3 things, all easy to check so probably will only take 5 mins..

1) There are 4 chrome bolts holding the elbow pipe from the intercooler onto the throttle body. One had come undone and another was a bit loose so air was leaking from there.

2) One of the hose clamps on the pipe from the intercooler to the elbow pipe was loose and air was leaking from there....

3) Attached to and disappearing under the pressure tank there\'s a couple of green one-way check valves, you\'ll have to unbolt the pressure tank to see them. Check they\'re connected as they help control the turbos operation.

Otherwise there\'s a great website which I can\'t remember being mentioned in this thread so far, well worth a read:

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Alex
