363bhp 376lbs but there was a problem with the boost not holding as yoiu can see from the print out

thay said if i get the boost sort it will make 400bhp easy and 400lbs

you can see from the print out just how quick the torque comes in
top line is toruque red line is flywheel power
bottom line is wheels power

Do you think the fluctuation is down to the wastegate itself being undersized and hence not holding boost steadily, as mine is the same with the S148 turbo.

Now back home and mapped to 531bhp & 411lb/ft - that's enough power for now! :D

If the wastegate was too small I would expect to see the boost rising rather than the other way round?

no its down the the fack that i have a 1.5bar actuator and then the boost controller is trying to run 1.5bar as just as the actuator is opening then the controller is trying to make it do 1.5 bar and getting confused, i now have a 1bar actuator to fit then the controller will be happy rinning 1.5bar might even run 1.6bar on the map asfter its been tweeked :)
