Just wind a bit more pre load on the actuator mate. Try a full turn at a time, testing full boost under full load, ie 3k on a mild incline in 3rd gearand put your foot down whilst then trying to hold the revs at around 4k using the foot brake and note where the boost peaks on your gauge. Best way to wind up the preload is to unclip teh rod from the gate arm insted of using pliers on the rod with it still in situ..heard of people snagging the actuator diapraghm doing it that way.

As above BUT have you had the fueling turned up to suit the extra boost ect
Offer wise it will run lean and do alot of damage

Ok, add to that....you also need to check fuel pressure and pump voltage.

And co% at idle should be checked but thats not really a hard job.

just go to somehwere like msd and get them to set it up for what you want

Do they have much in the way of cossie tuning in Ireland?? Suppose the ferry aint expensive tho....do as he says above and pay some one to do it for you if your unsure.

Where abouts in ireland are you? Theres a few people over here could sort it out for you.

and adjust your amel valve holes

How do you do that?

R5FORD

you have to jet them..

ie take the jet out of the valve that goes back to air filter

never heard anyone mention that before, i am doing mine when i get back to uk so i think i will book it in too jay to get it done properly

How is fuel "turned" up? i thought the new chip would have compensated?

u should not really have to adjust your actuator rod to much should be set at half a moon against your wastegate,u adjust the jets in the amal valve to get more boost

Alan s1

Dont know i just got told my fueling was to high and it needed turning down as it was still set for when it was on a stg3 setup and when i got it it was only stg1 (stunk of fuel ) and was running crap

The ONE most important thing to check is AFR!!

If this is not correct it will/can lead you to problems such as fuel pump voltage, fuel pressure etc

But as above jet your amal valve rather than winding the actuator right in

Or even better let a pro do it

Take it to a pro mate, if it runs lean can cause some damage be a shame after shelling out all that money on stage 3 parts.
