I have GIAC I and get 1.0-1.1 in higher gears. You will also get those same lights if a hose is loose. So I would check all hoses to see if any are loose or split particularly if the DVs have been changed. When you go to hook all that up again after the install you are likely to leave one or more of those hoses too loose. Especially if they used those screw type hose clamps.

O.K. Stage 4 guys, I'm starting to feel a little left out here. With my Stage 4 GT, on 91 octane, I occasionally see 1.2 bar but will only hold 1.1. I've been told the in car boost gauge is not reliable, but it seems to be working fine for you! What gives with my boost?

Yeah Zippy,

Quit running the PetroCommunist 91 octane and find yourself a Sunoco and get the Gold 94 octane. The fuel has ethanol added and it gives me 1.1 to 1.2 bar with a EVO Stage and Quiet Sport exhaust.

I ran a tank of 105 and didn't see much better. Cost me $200 to fill up!

We don't have Sunoco in Alberta. BC has Chevron 94. Some of the Mohawk / Husky stations are getting 94 octane here. I always fill with thier 92. I'm not sure what I was talking about when I said I was using 91 octane.

I am trying to figure out what kind of ECU the original owner put in the Turbo. It reaches 1.0 bar and is normally at .9. I also get a PSM ABS warning lights under full acceleration. Right now im thinking its upsolute, any other ideas?
It's working. The PSM warning light is telling u to take your foot off the gas and slow down.
