There is still more to tweak inside :wink: :D

As i said, my boost guage is there to keep a check on unrequired throttle, not for tweaking the pressure. I see the boost guage as a sort of exhaust flow guage, so more exhaust means more mix has gone in. I can be at 0.6bar doing 55mph maybe edging up, but i stick at 55 really, so when i see i am doin .6 bar, i back off down to 0.3 or 0.4 and it holds 55 very nicely. That is how i use it, and for me it works.

55mph whats that then :lol: :wink: .... my 90 will happily pull/sit on 90/95mph (on the speedo - and on a private road)... still runs a standard intercooler.
I agree with the boost gauge, and it can be a helpful toy when trying to get the best MPG... I did use to use the one in my other 90 like that at times. Is your calibrated??? - I've had a few TIM ones in the past and they have varied quite a bit in accuracy!!! (pm me if you want yours checked)
Is your max boost pressure still at 1 bar??

I only have a 1bar guage fitted and it wants to go off the scale and i have never openend it up fully. I havent been beyond 85 cos i bottled but i feel it will do more.
55mph whats that? 55mph is 35mpg thats wht that is!!!
You will learn about me i do not want speed, i want torque, and if that extra torque means a bit more go i'm not going to complain!!!
I am actually thinking about getting a 1.5 bar TIM one, may it be an idea to have it delivered to you first to save on one set of postage?

dont bother with a TIM one,i did & now use an autometer one (what the drift guys use :wink: ) & its much more acurate

How much is one of those and do they come in 52mm? And do they blend in with a landy dash?

a tim one is £25 from halfrouds,
an autometer one is £25 from above & its silver with a changable colour face,it looks no bad on my 90 beside the dash binacle
