General increase boost????????

[dspadge]

have just fitted bleed valve on mk2ut even when fully open still boosting as though standard,where is the max pressure switch and what does it look like ple,pics would be great,first ut i had lol

As you look at the block straight on it's on the top left hand side little rubber/plastic bbot with two wires just tape them up... will try find a pic

ALSO GET THE FUELLING CHECKED

otherwise melted pistons are not fun trust me

EDIT: Here's a quick pic

 

[dspadge]

have tried thatwires taped together touching,but still the same,same boost as standard,no faster still same place on boost gauge about 3/4 way round no way near the red??? have gas flowed head,dumpvalve k&n and full stainless fitted ??? first ut though

 

[jamie86]

What happens does it seem to cut back if you know what I mean?

 

[dspadge]

no still drives exactly the same as before bleed valve was fitted,when fully closed only 1/2 boosts fully open as though its not there,revs alway to 7000rpm still,3 way bleed valve fitted had to block 1 off T the two across blew through constantly when closed made no difference blocked 1 off and using the down piece and 1 across if that makes sense lol

 

[jamie86]

checked things like boost pipes no leaks etc?

 

[dspadge]

yes all pipes are ok nothing leaking just wont increase the boost,could the bleed valve be faulty???? brand new never fitted until tonight,cost 30 quid

Bleed valve faulty or not fitted correctly
