I just had a 2" inch lift installed to my non-ACE with air D2. I used the under the bags spacers from Terrafirma that come with the necessary sensor spacers and bolts. I went with the +2" Pro Shocks and needed the extended brake hoses from Terrafirma. ABS sensors didn't need extending. I also...

How hard was it changing the housing? My belt was screaming when turning the ac on and after checking on the bearing I realised that the housing was enlarged and the bearing was not a tight fit anynore. It was worn but not seized. I did change the bearing and tried a retaining compound to...

When you get the chance to carry extra load you will be able to tell if the valving of OME shocks is the issue. The extra weight might match the conditions that the shocks were designed for.

On another note, Dunlop recently introduced a +2" airbag for those who want a lift, keep air and avoid spacers.

Hi, did you match the 1" lift on the front by lifting the rear using a nanocom? So increasing the pressure in the bags (spring rate)? Also in some cases with short shocks and lifted airbags you can have the shocks topping out. Is this your issue too? Also OME shocks are on the stiff side if the...

What is the issue with that? Can you explain please? Is the same true for a Disco2?

Thank you for your offer but I will probably get a remap on my existing ecu.

235/85r16 and 265/75r16 have the same diameter (same look from the side, same lift) so is a matter of what you prefer having in mind where you are going to use them. Wider is not always better when off roading. A narrower tire is less taxing on the engine, axles etc as it is lighter. Fuel...

I can't guarantee the accuracy of the gauge but let's say I trust it. The same gauge showed a max of ~255-260kPa before the intercooler when I connected it to the line going to the modulator. The turbo was visually checked and blades/bearing looked healthy. The only thing I have no way to check...

Wishful thinking...

I was planning to get a remap but before that I wanted to sort this issue out. Maybe I should go ahead with the remap and hope that it will solve the problem.

That is an option but I don't want to mess up with another person's ecu

You don't need to go to extreme lifts or extreme tire sizes to improve an already capable car. First make sure your car is healthy mechanically (engine, gearbox, axles are getting stressed with bigger tires). Then sort out the fragile bits as mentioned above (bumpers, underbody protection) and...

I tried another MAP from another TD5 and it showed exactly the same figures on the Nanocom. So I guess the fuel map is suspect.

So I connected a boost gauge as you can see in the photo. When I see a sustained 225-227kPa on the Nanocom the gauge shows 240kPa.

This might also be a sign of a weak battery.

Tapping into the EGR tube is next then

I didn't double check because I don't have another gauge in that range. But the 260kpa does makes sense with the wastegate tightened like this. And if the wastegate is loosened to the normal length then I get 230kpa at the wastegate but MAP shows a max of 210-215kpa. So the drop still exists...

To me it seems a bit low but nothing to worry about. 18psi is 224kpa and that is before the intercooler. I would a guess a slight drop of 5-10kpa so you are getting at least 215kpa at the inlet manifold. Ideally you want 230-235kpa at the inlet. In my case to achieve the 230kpa at inlet I need...

Has anyone else measured the boost pressure before the intercooler? The pressure that the modulator or actuator see?
