12psi is a good figure for me... you could probably stretch it further but you risk fuelling issues and detonation the higher you go so the risk for me isnt worth it
Quote:
at the moment when you hit boost it basically feels like it shits itself, i think this is the fuel cut.
it should allow at least 10-12psi before hitting fuel cut so it sounds like the installation is wrong (boost controller facing the right way?) or the turbo vsv is interfering - plug that hose and see how you go - you mightn't need that fc defender

would there be any reason why: in different gears the fuel cut is at different boost levels? in first and second its rather high and then as you go up more gears, it seems to cut out at a lower boost, till in 5th gear it cuts out at about 7psi???
any ideas?
the car will boost at different levels in different gears - usually 1st will be lowest
fuel cut should stay constant
plug that hose first and check your installation then get back to us
