No mate, tried the diode mod with no joy, speedy cables made me a signal amplifier but that didn't work. They now have the speedo to see what they can do. Once I have it back I will let you know the score.

Boost is peaking at 1.9 bar but at about 5500

I'll give him a ring, I've only just bought the turbo off him, used admittedly.
I was assuming it wasn't the turbo or mapping but something else, maybe not then.
