Shoduchi:
So what happens when your turbo overboosts? Does the engine go into limp mode?
I'd be more worried to know what's wrong with the turbo since your stage 1 tune should be an old and tested map.
Maybe your geometry needs some cleaning or something. When you have that sorted you can test the new output in a rolling road. :smiley:

Hi my mechanical knowledge is not that vast tbh and in hind sight I should have asked the mechanic more questions. But he said it would be fine to run the new map but he wasn't happy to rolling road it!
Here are some photos of the paper work he printed off for me incase that helps:

I'm no mechanic but I can only see that you need to replace 2 glowplugs. Your boost pressure seems fine to me, tbh. My GT Sport is doing a bit more boost with a GTB1749V (1,34 bar stable; 1,54 bar peak), but I don't like smoke and it's not doing any smoke like I asked to.
Shoduchi:
Maybe it's peaking a bit high, but I'm not sure how much the OEM turbo can take and that has nothing to do with your boost at higher RPM. :confused:

Haha yea I need glow plugs as well. Fair enough, maybe if I go somewhere else to get it on rollers they may test it then? Ill see how it goes for now then.
