werid boosting fault?

[Wayne]

May also be worth unplugging you MAF sensor and see if it runs better.

unpluged air flow and it goes like mega slow! which confused me it was only boosting to like 8 psi!  and are they a pain to change them pipes ? look pretty tight to get too.. inlet off?

[Wayne]

8psi is standard boost but I am guessing yours is remapped in which case you have a boost leak somewhere

[cullygti]

yes he has wayne the pipe going to rocker is fooked 

and its all doable with out removing anything except engine covers 

[dan2252]

yeah its got a map on it but it might aswell be a AA road map as the amount of lack is stupid! rtech map needed once ive saved up, il get some pics up tomorrow to be sure im looking at the right thing! pretty sure i have like i get like a werid noise too when under full load sounds abit like wheel spin? but not as loud coming from the engine would that be the boost leak?

[cullygti]

thats what mine sounded like if you pop bonnet and listen it will sound like air escaping hence the damaged pipe

aup lads think ive found the issue.. before no faults in ecu. took for drive and its not got one somthing about mixture (add) somthing like that.. mate at work put it in computer and basicaly it says it means there could be a exhuast leak or a air leak, my exhuasts started blowing on the flexy just before the lambda strange how its just started running like rubish? spoke to my mate who owned the car before me and hes said the pcv valves been blanked off so can be that

[cullygti]

ive never heard of blanking off pcv valve tbh but what do i know
as it got a catch can fitted 

[dan2252]

me either mate had alook and it has, hes pretty clued up on cars so im gonna replace exhuast flexy and then see how it goes, looked deep behidn the inlet and theres like this blue pipe work running around onto pcv and stuff then a thicker pipe which runs down the engine and pops out under the car which is heat wrapped maybe for the old gases? i duno haha

[cullygti]

got a pic of it mate
