So I have filters, downpipes, decat and GT spec exhaust and a Mines ECU I put in. I've definately noticed a difference in response after fitting the decat.
Last week I attempted the install of the boost controller. I've got as far as getting it all wired up with the control in the engine bay and the headunit on the dash. I've plumbed in the boost sensor to the standard boost gauge vacuum host and on taking my car for a drive the HKS head unit was reading boost OVER a bar! I think it was very erratic and under hard acceleration was reaching 1.06 from memory.
How can this be ?! Can it be that the Mines ECU is making this happen. From reading searched threads it appears the Mines ECU is only supposed to provide the right fuelling for such levels rather than actually raise it itself. I think I'mn gonna get am aftermarket manual gauge installed but wondered if anyone knows.
Cheers
