Just had a browse round the hoses and only thing I found was on the bleed valve the hose was slightly off, pushed back on and all fine. Was it actually boosting to 20 psi or was it getting an in accurate reading? |

If the hose from the bleed valve areas the cause, then yes, you've been putting 20psi through it.
In the 13's at last!.. Just |

you cant get phantom positive boosts lol the pipe off on the bleed valve is as good as unplumbing the actuator

Back in the day "the boyz" always took the hose off the actuator on the Metro turbo and ran uncontrolled boost - for a little while, anyway.

Glad I sorted that but was fun.I must have been driving like it for a few days. Any one ran one till it exploded? If so how long would it last? |

yup, my first engine, lasted a few hours.. That's exactly what I would expect. It's a stock 998 running about 8.5:1 compression been boosting at 20+psi for several days...and bodgins has been giving it the beans everytime as well.....can someone explain how nothing has failed internally yet? seems like a miracle. |

Maybe he's stepped in dog shit. 8.5:1 is pretty low though, and if it's rich then it wouldn't really be a huge issue imo. On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:
