after recently re-fitting my rebuilt hybrid turbo, i took the car for a brief run this weekend. Anyway all went fine until i gave it some throttle to see the difference in lag and pick up, so i stare at the boost gauge and in a blink of an eye i hit 2bar! obviously i back off straight away and get back and check my actuator vacuum pipes and boost controller plumbing and everything is A ok. so i go out again (boost controller off) and give it a little bit of right foot and it overboosts again!
all i can think think of is possibly universal turbo's who rebuilt it for me may have pre-set the actuator to high strength or simular. thing is before i refitted it i tried on my turbo elbow and used a foot pump to see when the penny would open (i did this to make sure it didnt foul as its a xs power item, it didnt before it was rebuilt either). so i put the car away with my tail between my legs thinking what can be wrong!
anybody have any idea's at what's going on, any input is welcome as usual......
