The Collins ones I can see online are twin Piston

[Dan H]

mine looks like this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Collins-Pe...1711%26ps%3D54

Well the title says twin piston, so should be ok.

[Dan H]

thats ok then, i think i'll have another play around with it next week and see if i can get it running any better with it on

[Rudeyboy18]

Check all the other inlets on the vac tree are blocked. And Make sure the Blanking plate is TIGHT.

"best twin piston on the market" lol

[Dan H]

The blanking plate is deffo tight, dont wanna go any more incase i snap one of the bolts. I'll have a check over it all and see what happens when i re-connect the DV

It does the Job Frankie, if I can get this one on and running right then I may buy a better one in the future, but for now it'll do for the time being!

if youre only running 6 psi sounds as though you have a leak from somewhere, these cars are always leaking, it will either be a boost leak (but you should be able to hear that) or a vacuum leak

[Dan H]

guessing it will be a vaccum leak then, i'll buy some more vac hose and replace what i can see over the next week or so. Hopefully i'll be able to fix it, 90% of the wires look perrished mind, so probably just one of those that has a small crack in it

[T5frankie]

your turbo control valve could also be knackered as 6 psi is what they will read as a minimum

where is the TCV located? I think its got somethong slightly wrong with it as sometimes it feels like it drops off for a split second when i put my foot down at times

follow the pipe that comes off the actuator and at the end will be the tcv

cheers! i'll have a look tomorrow or sunday and see if i can find it, then get it replaced along with the vac pipes
