Ok so i made an attempt to shift the solenoid to the other side but found that the metal actuator line that bolts into an adaptor with a 12mm fitting, above of the rear turbo, was completely loose!
I bolted that in, made the lines to and from the solenoid roughly 20cm shorter and thought id just give that a go. Couldnt be bothered taking off the intake piping etc.
Ive tried using a lower set gain value but a higher gain value and it has actually reduced the spiking and is now holding a stable 0.9 bar on the low boost setting, before it was spiking to 1.0bar for a split second then holding at 0.8bar.
I havent fiddled with the high setting yet, car is going in for a retune 2moro as ive been getting some high knock readings come through at high rpm on the hi setting >.<
