    Homefry RS2 Setup boost?

    Be interested to know what boost people are running on the homefry RS2 chips? Im currently getting 1.3 bar tailing off to 1 bar at the red line. Also when driving i see vacume going off the scale which is minus 1 bar on idle its -0.8 bar is this about right?

    on idle it should be around 0.4 to 0.5bar.

    you have a boost leak. check your hoses

          yeah goes to 1.3 bar and then tails off to 1 bar. Not very aggressive then. Done a boost leak test and that did not show any leaks in the boost hoses. The PCV system was leaking though

              MRC chip the RS2 to 1.9 bar. If you have full 3" system and RS2 setup your car is nowhere near full potential

                Im sure my dump valve is a recirc valve, could this be the problem?

                            Yes sir, it will go like stink, I believe Paul has more aggressive homefry maps that you need afterwards to get the best of it.

                            I think the mrc high boost map is for the RS2 ecu only

                              I know this has been covered but where is the best place to get the 3'' downpipe? Am i right in thinking the S2 is 2.5'' and the RS2 is 2.75''? If so could this be the cause of the squeeling i am getting (although only slightly now)
