071's are still available,

Ford dealers are crap, and only their better workers can find them on their computer system.

Well I ended up getting Motorcraft AGPS901C fitted to the car.
New sump looks and got my rear lowering prings fitted whilst they were at it.

NB: I called my local Ford dealer and they didn't have any 071's in stock neither

Standard is 0.7 bar. Not sure on any overboost. Never had it happen but I know the symptoms. Does the car lurch forward then fire back up as you release the throttle?
It shouldn't boost-cut at 5k tho. Might be worth getting NMS to check the settings on it...
