When i bought my 96 t5 it boosted well (about 11/12 psi i would say) and was quite fast, long story short engine came out for new gearbox... I changed all the old cracked vac pipes for the turbo control, plus a recon turbo went on... Now though when accelerating - foot down hard, 2nd gear onwards - when pickin up from low RPM it only boosts a couple psi 3 maybe 4psi from say 1500 RPM all the way to at least 3750 RPM when it starts making boost, from here the boost is consistant with the revs, by the time 5500 comes it making at least 12 psi (couple of needle widths from the end the white bit) and pullin like a train... Is this normal?? i had an older 94 t5, the one with the revrsed intercooler pipes, that boosted alot more low in the revs, just wondered if this was volvo development at work...
Another thing, i hav another ECU from that car, is it worth putting that in it to see what happens??
