Tommyd16 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Installed my new greddy profec last week. Everything has been fine. Set up well then last night driving on the motorway I floored it a little and the limiter went off and was reading 3 bar! I sh*t myself and pulled over as soon as I could to have a look about. Everything seemed fine and the other boost gauge was reading normal. I turned off the boost function and the screen display was fluctuating between 2 and 3 bar but the Seperate boost gauge was reading ok - vacuum etc ok and gauge and the boost controller "processor" if you come off the same hose so I don't understand the issue unless the boost controller is fudged already?

TT Paul Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 solenoid maybe causing overboosting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 My 60mm boost gauge is reading correctly but the screen boost gauge on the control unit is showing differnt boost. Even at idle it isn't showing a vacuum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 As you can see the gauge is showing a vacuum but the controller is showing 0.00 where yesterday the controller said 2-3bar. I unplugged the solenoid and nothing changed so the only I guess it is is the sensor unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 The picture also shows that the peak boost the controller "thinks" it hit yesterday is 3.4bar. Hence why I was scared for my motor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT Paul Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 did the manual controller hit 3.4?? maybe the unit as you said is fubar?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yh the controller said over 3bar. Even at idle then today it says 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Where did you get the controller from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 I got it from an eBay shop. Emailing them now to try and sort something out hopefully. I think the sensor unit is knakkered already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
