The base boost will depend on what actuator you've got, not what turbo you're running.

Well before adjusting the actuater sorted out a few niggles and took the car out laugh

With the Boost contoller off it was reading,

0.8 on the boost gauge and 0.9 on the Greedy

So it seems fine rolleyes

And fortunaty Goose it does,nt creep like yours, holds 0.9 all the way tongue wink

The original water pipes are a straight fit of a standard/hybrid turbo,

you can use the original oil feed pipe if you force it or get a braieded one of ebay which is more flexable.

If you get a gt turbo, 28r/rs/rsr etc you'll need a oil drain flange and barb
