Re: Running to much boost
You've definately got some problem there. Check all the pipe work, like the pipe from the turbo to the actuator. Be very carefull as that much boost on a rev1 will quickly end in tears.

1.6 Bar on a rev 1?!?!?!
1.03 Bar is 15 PSI and should be the safe boost limit run on a rev 1 with the FCD set at 16 PSI
Hope this helps

Re: Running to much boost
You should have hit fuel cut before you hit 1.6 bar.??
My rev 1 had a split in the hose between the turbo and actuator and did this but my fcd was set to 15.5 psi so I never went as high as 1.6 bar.
I bet it flew
