I guess you posted some helpful tips on det and retard earlier, I'm the guy running 18.5psi and i would shure like not to be, so how can i stop it. when i turn the boost controller off it still boosts past 18 and the diddy dauge on the speedo dissapears to the right. I get that horrifying noise like "goosehonk" so I thought i had boost leak. how does that work, 18psi and boost leak?

 

do you have any ideas?

 

I only had it all fitted 2 weeks ago running fine before that, b*****x.

Just a thought, before or maybe after you bought the car, did it ever have an SE boost upgrade ? they bleed of from the turbo's to gain more boost and if it's still connected, then you'll have to disconnect to lower the boost. You can't have both anyways.

Look down to the turbo's from the top of the engine and if you see a small black hose hanging around by itself, one end connected to the turbo hoses and the other end not, then it's got this boost upgrade.

If not look for spilts in that area, there are only 2 small hoses.
