i have just bought a PRV but im not sure about setting it up as im not sure of my bhp etc and how accurate my boost gauge is.

If you have an innaccurate boost gauge then all the help in the world is going to leave you guessing no matter who helps you with it.

When you set the boost up start with the valve screwed out and then take the car through 3000rpm in 4th gear and see what the max boost you get is. Then screw in the valve slowly and retest as above until you reach the boost level that you are after - you want 1.2 bar max on your current setup.
