i have the bost controller as above and ive noticed that if im fully fanging it (like we're talking fullthrottle top end of 4th and 5th on high boost, the little plastic plugs that come with it to block the one spare hole in the solenoid pop out and it starts overboosting, i even tried siliconing in one of the plugs but now all of em are popped so i cant run high boost until i block this up, no screw came with the kit to block it up which is stupid and the tyhread seems to not be of standard thread types for that size screw, wtf can i do ?

no because when the plug is in i get no overboost, but when the plug pops off i get overboost, because it creates a leak in the solenoid, dunno wtf is wrong with your boost controller then dude coz if u have a leak u should be overboostin

I dont know, mine had always run with no problems without the little plug for the 3rd port.

i dont actually have it connected atm cause i have an adjustable actuator.

hey sorry to post this up so late.But ive had a problem with my boost ever since i got the above boost controller installed and i just found out that the vaccum + pressure lines swapped the wrong way (with the actu8or hose where the preassure should be and vice versa) so i was getting a suck reading where i should have been getting a push reading to the valve unit.HAS THIS HAPPEND TO ANYONE BEFORE AND WHAT DOES IT DO TO THE OVERALL PERFORMANCE OF IT BOOSTING ETC.?????

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
