Get those 42lb Bosch units back and flog them off. I have them in my car and ran an 11 with a lazy 60 footer. Should get 300 for them depending on kms

More problems ,the computer is playing up as soon as he tries to dial more boost in . Which makes the flapper open and shut in a fast manner and it can not build up boost pressure down low . So he recommended to buy pass the computer and use a e boost street for $650 fitted . He also said that the valve springs are starting to valve float at higher rpm ,so they are starting to wear out (nizpro replaced 3 years ago 40.000 klm old )that is at about 310 rwkw .So I have just handed over $1900 so far for the injectors and half a tune ,and some trouble shooting .The total might end up costing me a mint if I get the E Boost for $650 . Might need valve springs for another $800 plus .

I also asked what injectors that he used ,they are only 1000 Bosch not id 1000 .oh well

Man if you need a eboost that means there saying your Solineiod is stuffed. Get a new one. I have a good one you can have.

I've seen faulty ecu's before, they normally totally die or drop a coil or injector driver, have not seen one lose boost control function control but I guess there's always a first if his diagnosis is correct
