    Question fitted boost gauge!

    Hi all, I need some help please! i got my boost gauge fitted today(with the help of sizzlechest) to establish whether my car is holding boost or not. After linking it up, we went for a little blast, and it was holding solid at 0.8 bar.
    After returning, we decided to remove the fuse for the ecu, to reset and after about 20 mins, we replaced it, and continued to drive..............it then was boosting at 0.6 and struggling at that? will this rectify once the ecu has adjusted? Hope so!!
    Im glad u all had a crackin day at avon, sorry i couldnt make it, but roll on stretton fox!! woo hoo!
