Right guys ive got abit of a problem now and then the car will on produce half of the boost it should be runining at so wot i mean is it should run 1.2bar but over time this as gone down and down now she runs about 1.1bar of boost but some times she will only run 0.5bar of boost do u think this could be down to a sticky actuator? (my car is a st205 94 reg).

Thanx Craig

check your ecu for any codes. it sounds like your car is going into low boost mode because it is detecting a problem somwhere.

yes... if your dump valve broke, then its probably creating a major boost leak . thats why your getting so little boost.
Craig
