Hi all, i fitted a autometer boost gauge last night and found im only geting 7psi of boost, from the searches ive done most people say this is safteyboost! now i know the knock sensor can put you in this mode but ive check the ecu fault codes and only get code 55,but when i first got the car i was getting the code for knock sensor but after sorting some other issues i dont get that code anymore, so is their anything else i should check or anyone no what else can cause saftey boost, Cheers guys , wayne

Morning all, I have a engine problem I could use some advice for. The engine will not rev above 2500 rpm. At a standstill if I hold the throttle at 2500rpm the engine appears to rev itself between 2000 and 2500 rpm, very rythmically like hitting a rev limiter as it chops at 2.5k. In fwd motion as you hit 2.5k the car judders violently. Over the last few months the car has had a similar problem, it was reluctant to accelerate under light throttle, it would stutter etc but would get through it and rev out fine. Sometimes though you could run it without a problem. I have had issues with the two water temp sensors at the front but am pretty cert…
