nevertomorrow Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Hi all sorry if im being a pain in the **** but quick question..! I don't know if i should have but someone told me to slightly ajust my actuator to run slightly more boost. so i have............. How do i know if im running to much boost? It's a hybrid ct9 and it's dead on 1bar boost is that to much? Obviously you can tell im a novelist lol Quote
abbie Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 what mods have you ? you need certain mods with the ct9 to boost a bar safely Quote
mikey4410 Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Overboosting is when u go over your target boost.u stated you have your car set to 1.0bar/14 psiyou are overboosting if you hit 15psi or over, simple.Ct9s are great at overboosting, an external wastegate will stop this very easily. Quote
5T4R7ET N/A Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 One of first things on your shopping list should be a boost gauge if you don't have one,Then a boost controller. Quote
Gainzy Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Buy a decent boost gauge of you havn't already, It should be ok with the weather been warmish, it's the winter you gotta watch for overboosting...that's why people run actuators at 0.8 and use EBC's to do the rest/change settings etc Quote
nevertomorrow Posted August 4, 2014 Author Posted August 4, 2014 it's got a greedy boost gauge. I dont think it's got many mods (havent had it long) only ported and flowed manifold, decat straight though (sept back box). and a hybrid ct9. Quote

Sounds like you should be running fine sounds like you need a backbox.. Quote

littlegreenmonster Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 Or just leave it and if it goes bang then yeah you were Quote
GlanzaJ Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 Or just leave it and if it goes bang then yeah you were That made me LOL Quote
Gainzy Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 No fuel mods but it does have a fuel cut defender?You need to find out if your running an uprated fuel pump..the chance's are you are but I wouldn't trust a fcd, I would turn the boost down if I was you until you get proper management ie plug n play etc Quote
Ryan-11 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 turn the boost down to .8 or get it checked on the dyno Quote
