Ok,



I think I may have a problem with the precontrol actuator, I don't feel the switch over at all. It's feels like I'm running on one turbo, I do hit .90 on the pfc with no problem, but it doesn't feel like it should. You know that feeling when you get pushed back on the seat. I'm going to remove it and test it out, is there anything else I should look at?... and if I need the precontrol, does anyone have a good one that they want to sell?...How much is it new?..



TIA

Alex

if it reads .90 your car should be fine.... if its boosting it should be fine... maybe you are just used to the power now ?

damn I was hoping I wasn't used to the power, that can get real expensive. I forgot to mention I hit 1.06 bar @ .76 inj. duty this morning on my way to work. Those air temps really help, 17c.

the transition is not really noticable......the 3K hesitation is, sometimes, but i never really felt a transiiton in either of my fd's......if you are getting positive boost, i do not see hwere the problem is.....dontfix what aint broke.......the sequential turbos, from MY experience, have been very smooth....the NON sequential set up on the other hand, is more abrasive, if you will, with the power feel. there is no smooth spooling, the power just hits......but i am not doing anything but repeating what meny NS threads have already covered.....sorry to be redundant....
