in the higher gears as i get round to over 5k i experience boost cut.is this due to the cold weather causing it to over boost or should i check some bits out.only mods i have is decat system panal filter in the standard airbox and a fuel pump i kno these mods without a map can cause the boost to creep anyways.would you reccomend fitting a boost guage and seeing at what psi/bar i experience the boost cutting.cheers in advance

Because of the colder weather the air becomes more dense so Yh a change in reading. You can have the boost cut increased or uprated the fuel pump fit a boost controller and have a map done

Yea as usual with the cold weather boost levels will rise and cause fuel cut.
A mapping session will sort this :)

Yeah. I had to adjust my boost level down last week, it started hitting 1.5 bar on an unmapped 4. Through the summer it was only doing 1.1 and the only thing that changed is the weather.
