My boost sensor is redundant, as I use the EVC. However, you can see it lay behind the fuse box.

I wouldn't know if the pressure is lower or not, as I only fitted my oil pressure sensor to the relocation adapter. I would say not, otherwise all the people with oil coolers would complain... :) The pipes are the same as to my catch tank, so 5/8 inch.

Please don't tell me that is a ratched strap holding you battery down with cardboard to stop it shorting out.

bodge bodge bodge :)
whatever works :p

Nicely, can't remember if I asked this before. But what size hose did you use for the oil cath tank? AN10. If that's the case how on earth did you fit it to the engine side? Maybe you use AN11?

Yep, ratched strap :D Most secure and quickest way to hold and remove a battery :thumbs: And don't be ridiculous. Cardboard? :no: Two strips of carpet :D They aren't just any old terminal connectors underneath though...

Not sure on the size of the catch tank hoses without checking. Think they were 15mm... Got them from Hose Solutions though.


Intake pipe is ?79. See here. They also have a standard AFM intake pipe replacement.

Hmm. AN10 is about 14.3mm inside diameter. They fit with alot of elbow grease.
AN11 is about 15.75mm inside diameter.
Well. I'll figure out something for my setup :)

Oh, forgot to mention that the intake pipe has improved spool-up. Its supposed to improve boost too, but I think I've disturbed something somewhere, as peak isn't being reached...

have you tried to reset the EVC?
Might have to re-learn the base boost if it would have changed.

The EVC5 shouldn't need that, as it's not self learn (AFAIK).
OK. Don't know how the 5 works. But isn't there a setting for base boost?
i know that on the 6, you can set it manually or when in "enter base boost" mode on initial setup, drive a couple of full boost runs. It then uses the peak boost from those runs as base.

I thought the 5 worked in a similar way.

I reset my EVC 6 after removing my MOT cat as it boosted wrong when the exhaust flow was altered.

Getting rather crowded in there Nicely... :rotfl:

I've always wanted to ask this question. Notice a milk coloured piece of plastic just behind the black fuse box - its left side looking at the picture - Whats that for? :confused:
