boost problems

[Nick_p]

Hi guys i needsome help!

Was driving home tonight when i noticed i was hitting the fuel cut when i was on full throttle. had a look at my boost gauage the fuel was cutting at 0.9-1.0bar. so from this it seems the car is over boosting.

it happened when on hi or low boost. what could possibly cause this problem?

the only mods the car has engine wise is a induction kit and cat back exhaust.

Thanks

Nick

i was having a simular problem with my glanza mate.

are you running a atmosperic bov?

i found my problem was caused by a boost leak. it turned out to be a mixture of the standard bov not being blocked off properly, and the boost pipe off the turbo not being tightly bolted down.

i took everything off the intake side, cleaned it and put it back together.
