just been fitting me new mikalor hose clips onto me front mount pipework and when i took one of the rubber connectors off the intercooler pipe i found a whopping great hole in it. im guessing thats the reason as to why my car was only peaking at 18psi boost and not 22psi like is was when andy mapped it. to be honest im just pleased that it didnt destroy another engine as from looking at the hole it has been there for a good while. gonna take it out later on and see how it drives. on the bright side.......... its all sorted for mapping. roll on the 21st :-) :-)
