    Reminds me of a particular person testing someone's actuator with one of those things, making something like "15psi" and wondering why it wouldn't open...

    And no, it wasn't me but it is the reason I made the test rig.

    I have had the same problem took the plug off my maf sensor and it flies in first gear.

    But as soon as you go into higher gears the boost does drop I also seem to get my boost gauge vibrating, my plan is to just drop a 16t into it and see if this cures it but for the mean time it's fine with the maf plugged in after An ecu reset.

    My actuator seemed to open about 5psi I thought that was a bit weak.

    Can anyone clarify

    Is that 5psi on the gauge or 5psi at the actuator? if it's at the actuator, that's about right and the bcs will deal with the rest.
