        I will check it this weekend!

        Thanks

        Pd: the car was stopped for 2 years and now the max boost is 0'5 bars...

        Is possible that the ecu is reseted and now it needs to learn?

        It's possible that the gas it's bad?

            Check the connection to the N75. My car was running fine and, suddenly (curiously after my wife took it to visit her family), boost would keep stuck at 0,5. And today, after going through a bump, boost came again as it should. I haven't have time to check the fault codes, but I guess it has to be a connection problem, and I would bet for the N75.
            By the way, I am sure you have already checked it, but if the ECU doesn't get any boost signal (for example, if you disconnect the MAP hose), then the car also works on mechanical boost. From what I remember, a faulty signal on the hall sender (mi dizzy was set a bit out of point, but your car is an ABY), and a damaged wastegate (Manuel Garrido's car) also suppose the boost limited to mechanical.
            I am glad to read you again, and to see that the car is back on the road.
            Cheers!!!
