Right OK, I finally took the car to the garage and they replaced the OE rubber intercooler hose down in the wing (which was getting squashed up) with the 90 deg silicone hose I got. Now there are no kinks in the intercooler pipework. They checked for any possible leakages and there are NONE.
My turbo is fine, pipework is all good, intercooler is good, vacuum lines are good.
That just leaves two, well three possibilities...
1. The spring in my actuator is too weak as they said they could physically pull it open and maybe it wasn't strong enough to hold over 10psi.
2. The N75 valve isn't doing what it supposed to which either means A) it's not working properly or B) it hasn't been mapped appropriately.
I'm guessing if the turbo is working as it should be the N75 isn't doing it's job then it could be running rich which is what Dan's is doing and from what I gather 10psi = approx 180bhp and 195lb/ft of torque which is what his rolling roaded at. ANyone recommend where I can go from here? Thanks!
I was looking Sharky_82 logs, 1780 @ 5.6k rpm isnt a lot.
its very possible the actuator spring is duff, but i dont know whether you should be able to open the wg by hand or not?
are P-torque just a mapper then? wont they have a look themselves if they mapped it and thats when problems started?
