Matty Unregistered M	Ah that's right, it's in your drivers side vent and IIRC it was already turned up fairly high as I did have a wee look. $\:P$ Have you got a link to your fuel, boost and power graph? If not then I'll just look at the PC tomorrow.

The fueling is much better after the ECU reset however what concerns me is that a standard car is needing the high fueling chip. Voltage at the pump is fine on boost, and I'm not convinced it's the pump anyway as it richens up nicely at the top end. As Craig says a new PRV is on the way as the old one has seen better days. We'll get there. $\:D$ New PRV now fitted and the car is holidng boost sooo much better.. Once Matty has some spare time I'll get the fuel filter/pump/wiring mod done and hopefully it'll be much better $\:\)$ Ex 20VT - now something far more sensible'ish...

doug20vt Unregistered D	new prv def makes a difference, i fitted one of japs this evening and the car has finally stopped over boosting, now goes straight to just over 1.1 bar and stays there until it starts to tail off
