Are you still running the MBC? as you will need to set it correct, Get another boost gauge and set to 21/22psi peak with the MBC then the N75 will do the rest.

MBC in parallel.  I'm seeing 18psi peak on my gauge so around 21psi. MBC is capped where you set it. 


Will try find another boost gauge

It will need setting up again as when in parallel there is extra bleed off from the n75, unlike running it on its own.

Checked cams today and no unusual wear.  Going to check pickup tomorrow and maybe new oil and a flush to try clear things out?  What you think?

What would you recommend?

Heard a few good things about forte stufff....but all it does is dislodge any grime in oilways potentially causing a blockage.

Theres a couple options:

1) ignore it and hope it wears off
2) fresh oil and clean pickup
3) New exhaust tappets

Option 2 but fit a new pick up pipe for what is costs.
