Whatsthestorey Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I just got a 96 Glanza turbo. It is limited to low boost in first and second gear when on high boost.I've read up on the solenoid bypass, but also hear it means the low boost setting is not available after this. I don't mind as most wouldn't, loosing the low boost setting but my mate had a 99 Glanza which boosted high in first an second gear but the low boost setting still worked.Can anyone tell me how this can be all he had was a boost gauge, exhaust and filter as upgrades.Also is it safe to bypass. Does the actuator still do its job with the bypass because I've heard that it can stop it working an cause air back flow through the turbo.One more thing my mates Glanza and a few I've driven had a dump valve sound even tho the was no after market dump valve installed, mine doesn't have this sound. Any help would be great Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whatsthestorey Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Cheers ye I don't hav a fcd. How bad is fuel cut for the car. If it cuts would it be best to reconnect the solenoid? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) If you have an fcd it shouldn't hit fuel cut at all bud you'll love it with no restriction Just realised you don't have one it may be alright you'll soon no if you do hit it Edited April 10, 2013 by akyakapotter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whatsthestorey Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 U mean 5th gear ye? Might e a silly question but I've never hit fuel cut. I'm assuming the engine cuts due to not enough fuel supply and it means simply just startin the car again ye? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Yes mate I was on about 5th to 4th gear to chase after sumthin the engine don't cut out but you can't go any harder you would know if you'd hit fuel cut before the dreaded fuel cut lol you engine goes doooom and you freak out and slow down haha this is the best discription I can giv you of fuel cut maybe other members can explain a bit more Quote Link to post Share on other sites
