stronger spring = lower w/g solenoid duty to hold boost

thanks mate, that makes sense

Have the car booked in on the 29th Oct for some more tuning. Will give me time to drive the car more over the next week or so and see how she goes. Hopefully this weekend i can get some figures from the ecudatascan.

when turning the car on. i switch onto ignition, type the code in, wait 10sec for the fuel pump then turn the key all the way. Yesterday i did this and the car would not start. It would jerk for a bit then do nothing. Tried again straight after and it turned on. It seems there is some sort of issue as this is happening every time the car starts now. any ideas?

Fuel pump shouldn't really take more than 3 or 4 seconds to pressurise the rails (unless it's 40 degrees outside!).

Your not touching the accelerator pedal during cranking are you?
