Sorted - it was the fuel pump. New Walbro fitted, manual boost controller fitted (the guys garage got me a used one for £25) - set to 1 bar (no nore 2 stage so goodye to the lag hopefully!), mixture richened - (was running lean apparently), various air leaks and previous owners bodges sorted, and dyno'd. I guess my car was somebodys unfinished project at some point!) Can't wait to get it back (even though im supposed to be selling it - and prob wont want to now. The guys at Triton assure me after spending some time on the dyno that its sorted, also they said that my plugs were fine so havent changed them - so fingers crossed! Power atf improved by 30bhp after the work

Anyway, Dyno results:

is that a stock turbo set to run 1 bar ?

[Chris T]

I'm pretty sure its stock-I'll check. I asume they know their stuff though. Why, is that too much? Some say .8, .9 but iv'e read others run 1 with no problem..

yep, too much

Should be .8 - .85 or you risk loosing your exhaust wheel.
