Rhys249 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 yes but i never drive it at 1 bar, only ever been there once or twice, usualy keep it below 0.7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 you are running 1Bar on a standard mani???????My thaughts exactly! Suprised you havent melted a piston! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
N80Jamie Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 As above, if you are running 1.0bar on the standard maifold you may have caused some problems to your engine (depending how long you've ran the car like this for). The 3rd runner is really restrictive and iirc the 2nd runner is fairly restrictive as well.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhys249 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 it will boost to 1 bar but i keep it below 0.7, i dont drive it past that ever, i know about the restrictions in the manifold and i know the damage it can cause so i never let it go past 0.7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rinseep82 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 do a compression test dude Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Try to find out what ECU it has, are you sure it doesn't just have a FCD fitted alone?Also check for boost leaks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhys249 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 Try to find out what ECU it has, are you sure it doesn't just have a FCD fitted alone?Also check for boost leaks!not sure what ecu it is, just a plain silver box that sits under the standars one definatley not got a fcd fitted to it.will be going in to the garage soon to have a new clutch fitted and maybe my td04 kit, so i'll get them to do a compression test, i just dont want to fit the td04 kit to it if its not running as it should be Quote Link to post Share on other sites
