Get it wrong, bye bye engine. Thats why all decent conversions come with comprehensive instructions, or at least bloody well should do.
It's a potential £5k disaster waiting to happen if you just meddle with boost.
From your post earlier I realised that I was wrong
I am used to just fitting a chip and it works and controls the boost but I'm in a different world here now thankfully.
I now realise and know that I have to speak to the people that produced the chip and get it set-up to what they say. I made the mistake if thinking that you fitted the chip & actuator and bingo
Thanks to everyone for their help, I haven't been on the cossie scene very long and I'm learning
My plan was/is to get the car close to what the originators of the chip recommend then get it checked out before monstering the car.
