lag
 
when i put the throttle down on my s2 the car wont boost. i have to wait for about 2-3 seconds then it kicks in. im running a -31, standard cooler,chipped ecu and 12psi. i have replaced all service parts.

My moneys on incorrectly set actuator. You only just fitted it? ;)

juffer 26-10-2007 08:34 PM

no the car has been set up but it just wont boost. can it be a dodgy wastgate? it got 156bhp @ wheels on 12psi

Christian and Beccy 26-10-2007 09:11 PM

So, is it not just normal Turbo lag then? :?

my standard car starts boost hard (0.5 bar) at about 3200 rpm

Rick 26-10-2007 10:01 PM

sounds like std lag to me...

juffer 27-10-2007 07:38 AM

so any ideas what will cause this.

Dragsteer 27-10-2007 09:00 AM

put in 4th gear and press throttle and look on boost gauge and see at which rpm you have 12 psi.
