    Boost issues

    After my rolling road yesterday the car was fine...

    However, today the car is overboosting to 1bar.

    The HKS EVC IV is set to 0.7bar at the moment, but isnt sticking to it... the boost gauge warning is flashing at 1 bar.

    When the controller is off, the car settles fine at 0.55bar.

    Anyone think of anything?

    I'll try recalibrating the unit in a bit to see if that helps.

    I fitted a Bailey DV26 a few days back too.. but surely that cant affect things>?

    Glad to hear.

    Was it a simple "reset and calibrate" by pushing buttons, and running the car at certain rev's?

    Or was there more too it?

    Interested for my own future mods.

    I personally didn't like HKS EVS... its fuzzy logic gets "screwed" much too often for my taste
