Have taken the car out today and noticed that at times the needle on the boost gauge goes straight past the 1.3 bar mark (heading towards the word turbo).

I have never seen this happen before, does anyone know what causes it to go off the scale

 

Too much boost..... Unless you are running a different chip/injectors etc

 

most of the time it seems to hold the correct boost, its just on the odd occasion it goes over the top.

the car has been chipped, I had to replace the coil packs.

would a session on a rolling road be useful?

 

A proper set up would be best

 

cheers damo,

can you tell me a bit about rolling roads as I have never taken a car to one and don't really know what to expect or how much it will cost.

Also can anyone recommend a rolling road near Milton Keynes?
