Re: fiat uno turbo ie 1988

thanks for the answer...
1. yes i removed the overboost wires
2. the car can sustain bigger boost than 0.6..i'm running now with 0.7-0.8 bar

Thing is: i know the car with standard turbo makes full bost at 3500 rev in full throttle....now ...in my car when i tested it a few days ago did this:
full thotle 4th gear 3500 revs...the needle in the boost indicator goes to 1 bar..an thes drops to 0.7-0.8...this could could happen if i have a bad pipe or something ..or my opinion is that the needle goes to 1 bar from inertia..when boost builds up rapidly in ..and then it settles ( the needle) wher it shoul be at...in my case 0.7-0.8 bar. Normally i could solve this problem with a better( newer) and more accurate boost gauge..but i don't have one at this moment.

I am currious did'n anibody else have this "problem"...all the needles in this dashboard have big ineritia..and i don't blaim then ..they are what 20 years old.....i am pretty sure it's just the needles inertia that shows me 1 bar..i do not thing i reached 1 bar yet..i raised the boost level very slow( on my boost controler)..i couldnt have reached 1 bar...

Re: fiat uno turbo ie 1988

I always get lost on those things and drive around the cones in the wrong order

Realistically the amount of boost you have is totally irrelevant for these events, but I guess you know that already!
