My boost level (safe?)

[will_maddox]

Hi guys, been questioning this for a couple of weeks now. Im boosting 0.9 bar on a stock ct9 and actuator, the car has a hdi intercooler, buddyclub spec2 catback an hks mushroom. I didnt think the ct9 could boost that high without a uprated actuator? Would the FCD be causing this?

.9bar on stock actuator and no other boost mods?? either your gauge is wrong bud or theres a manual boost controller in there or maybe washers behind the actuator bracket

 

[will_maddox]

Nope nothing

does engine mangement light come on when it hits .9 your boost gauge could be wrong see can you lead one to test it

you have a FCD installed, do you have a rising rate FPR ?

 

[will_maddox]

I have tried another cheapo boost gauge and tgat shows same levels

Also the FCD at 2 im might fidle around and set a fuel cut. Good idea?

do you have a upgraded fpr ? if you dont rip the fcd out. its only making your car lean!

 

[will_maddox]

No mate, no FPR, i thought the FCD stop the lean conditions of fuel cutting???

fcd are very bad news if there not set up with a fpr bud, take it out!

first of all, take the fcd out. then check to see if you have an adjustable actuator. the boost levels also could be with exhaust sysytem and intercooler and air filter but i dont see that much of a jump with them mods but it could be. and with the FCD installed your only making the car worse.
