I'm sure it won't cost you an arm and a leg to just get it checked out. I personally dont live in melb. but it would be like me going to tunehouse in syd. from now on.

Micks a very honest and top notch bloke so he'll tell you whats actually happening.I know MPC tune alot of Evos and they normally run around the 24 - 26psi mark with minor mods. But their dyno also reads very high from my experiences with them and others I know of. So I think there has to be something goin on here, as I would have thought with your mods, and DEF the boost level then it should be reading quite a bit higher power wise.I'd take it easy driving, just until you actually find out if its ok to drive. Perhaps the sensor was just put in the wrong place but can't be to careful . Edited 06/10/11 11:53 AM by webby324 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I dont even know what this all means, I wouldnt have thought it the manifold pressure was too high unless you guys told me. anyway ill try sort it out asap thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally didn't trust these guys from my personal experience with cars they tuned day in day out rather than something they're not even used to.
