Mate, I set the boost by taking the car for a drive and adjusting as necessary ... time consuming, but better in the long run, I reckon. The 16psi occurs when the motor goes into limp mode and boost is dropped.(The EGT drops to well below 100 C.) My old motor when it hit limp, would go down to about 6 or 8psi.
The more I think about it the more convinced I am that a pump transplant is gunna be my only way out.
But I aim to try everything else before I do that. Local bloke suggested a new ECU and wiring loom, but that scares the crap outa me.
Local Nissan dealer advised that the pump, ecu and loom were changed in about mid to late 2004 and the pump won't be compatible with my Trol.
Mate, thanks for the input. Appreciate it, and I'll let you know the outcome one way or the other.
