Still need to get a proper calibrated boost gauge, but, now the air is cooler, and I'm running almost exclusively on Sainsbury's SUL, it is peaking higher, just nudging the border between orange and red (about 3-4mm into the orange), and hardly drops back at all. It is actually pretty much holding what it peaks at, and seems to come on boost a lot earlier too. On premium unleaded, and the warmer days (and prior to me swappign all those hoses), it wouldn't seem to boost until about it was at close to 3750/3k now it is starting to build not much after 2250 and has almost reached full boost by 2500. Must get a calibrated guage in there some time. Just need to find a decent but cheap pod mounted one to discreetly hide on the dash somewhere. -- Carl Robson (The poster formerly known as Skodapilot) http://www.bouncing-czechs.com
