right! why is my sh*tty car only running 0.8 boost even once i have fitted a 2-port solenoid? :mad: it was running that when the boost was direct to the actuator!

Solenoid either not working. Not set up right or just not plumbed in right :)

Stock boost on your car is 0.8 if you want bigger boost grab a 3port and have it mapped in or grab a manual boost controller and have it mapped in, so your actuator is controlling your boost at the moment and if you have put a 2 port in, your ecu is telling it to boost actuator pressure. I'm pretty sure of this, later cars from 7 onwards peak boost was 1.2 holding at anywhere from 1 to 1.2

0.8 s spot in for all cars :)
Oh and for the record, I hope you didn't expect the abs fault to sort the boost :razz::)
