Thats correct and don't squirt for more than 1 second at a time

Spray it in with the engine running? A squirt every , say, 30secs or so?

Map pipe cleaned and ok, inlet gaskets replaced. As I've said in previous post power back and now a lot quieter after running cleaner through turbo

I think I would be looking at map pipe or inlet gaskets next. Possibly the intercooler itself as RRDT suggested.

New hoses. No black smoke. A bit when I ran cleaner through but none at tick over and reving

Hose delaminating inside? Any black smoke? That heat shield under the intercooler inket all good?

Well bought a can of Wynnes EGR and turbo cleaner and sprayed it in inlet pipe to the turbo. Took my time nice and steady. Wow took it for a spin and the difference is very noticeable. Quieter, more powerful overall a lot lot better. I am...

I take it the two potentiometers you are talking about are the tiny ones I have circled in the photo below. Good luck trying to tweak those without a calibrated test rig.

I was a bit cross at lunch when I saw an old Vauxhall Corsa in the electric parking bay at my local Sainsbury's at lunch time. I assumed it was there because it's right by the shop door and all the parent and disabled bays were occupied with...

I bought one to use when my heater matrix leaked and I by passed it

I had one of them in my 2A when i was going to college in the winter! Never had any flames though!! That might have been worth while

You said "fuel economy" 🤣🤣🤣😜

Always undo the filler plug first is good practice. Don’t wanna drop it just to find out filler won’t come out for some reason.

Wasn't sure where to post this...

Good to know , being brand new to the P38 there is a lot to learn.

The l322 onwards is pretty much electric anyways, just needs a hunking 4.4 v8 to power the alternator 🤭

www.Blackbox-solutions.com a good investment and they have a good resale value.

Thank you kind sir👍

14.7psi or 1 bar seems normal. 1.2 bar may be possible.

Will get some one sat next to me tomorrow with diags plugged in to take some live readings whilst driving around

Always plenty of space in the electric parking bay

She's got to be pulling hard under load like up a hill for max boost.

I'll have to check but I think 1 bar over atmospheric is correct.

Oooh, that's going to be difficult going into tescos dragging four wheels behind you 😜

Intercooler was new 10 years ago, don't know life span of them. Wondering about wastegate crudded up as have known that to happen before on other vehicles

Plugged hawkeye in that reads boost. Nanocom with Shaun. At tick over got .89 bar on atmospheric and same on boost, took up to 3500 revs and got1.005 bar. Sure thats a bit low, thought should be around 1.5 bar.

Little holes in intercooler made that noise with me. Showed up when I filled it up with petrol and soaked it. Weren’t big either just little weeping bits Wastegate can get cruded up

It can.
