I have just replaced the silicoln hose's around the car. Took ohh teh boost hose and refitted a nice blue one, putting the jets back in.

 

Took the car out for a run, and looked to see if everything was working properly.

 

Dint notice any difference one way or the other, but i did notice that the boost guage only just made it up to 7.

 

Shouldnt this be going off the scale iff boost jets are fitted? Or is it more likely to be a naff guage reading?

what size jets did u put it, sounds like your in safety boost to me

1mm rings a bell

Did you replace the hose's that go to the wastegate's (the one's with your jets in) with standard silicon hose ? co's if you did there is the possibility that they are expanding under pressure and by passing the jets? You should only use reinforced silicon hose to the wastegate's.

I always put small hose clips round mine to prevent this....if using stock hose :cool:

Its smithys hose kit. others have used it without probs. me thinks something is amiss here.

 

will take the batery off tomro and let it reset.
