Best to change up before the pressure drops to 1.25bar as when this happens it plays hell with the dv etc and the power drops off quickly and you really feel it . My old map used to change like that ( 1.4 -1.2 ) and I hated it so had it redone to hold 1.45 all the way.
Get a graph up when u can.

Yeah 1.25bar is Just before the limiter...I change there anyway,but i know what you mean tho about it loosing power...

its mapped to hold 1.45bar to the limiter but i dont have a Apexi-avcr or even a Greddy just a MBC..

Just pondering weather to get the hybrid done..

MBC will do the same I think, just the EBC is an electronic version of this, although prove me wrong, but I think the gt2x is working its socks off at this point and an EBC wont make much of a difference

I have the higher rated spring in my MBC and it is wound right out, potential to boost up to 2bar and it certianly isn't making this....if it did.... **boom**

I think your talking about your actuator spring :whistle:

nope

I run the yellow actuator spring, which I think when tested ran to 30psi.....cant remember exactly

and then the MBC was round right out, and boosting at 1.5 bar

there are two different springs in the Forge MBC, and the higher rated one is in mine to for higher amounts of boost, and it is wound right out

as Bill said, the turbo is flowing at 1.5 bar and does not have a great deal more left in it otherwise you are looking at blowing the turbo

Yeah Im going to beattie....Im prober chuffed with it...had a play with a new mazda Rx last night....

Ive got a Tcs And abs light and it went in to limp mode last night 5psi then wen i was nearly home the boost came back so i think my maf Is dieing lol
Going to vag-com it today

Bill: Yeah im going to do the approite logs but with this weather is too dangerous..Ive only driven the car briefly and i just love it...And it holds it really well

ive got a slight whin when it comes on boost full so either my tip isnt on right or ive got a boost leak somethere yet its holding and hitting 1.5 bar just fine...

Just need to fit my catch tank and Oil cooler now...
