Hey marc, sent you a PM.
before jumping to conclusion, i must admit that i changed it for an AVCR since i wanted a real thing. Bob, If only i knew you had one.. I bought mine for £280 and its the silver/blue one
Marc, By problem was simly a bloody boost leak between turbo outlet and hard pipe. I cut a silicon hose and used it as a gasket. As i said, i did get from 10psi to 15psi but that was my choice to stop there since i was running on standard engine and turbo.
You can have a number of problems why you are not getting boost. You might have a weak actuator spring, boost leak (like i had) or simply a a little of everything.
If you conclude 100% that the boost controller is the problem, i will refund you your payment don't worry.. but i wouldn't have sold it overseas if i knew it was faulty especially to a member in here.
try and pump 1 bar of air in the vacuum feed of the controller and see if the soleniod clicks...
