Take it to someone near uni like SST and ask them to run it up on the dyno to see if the output is normal for a stockie. If not I'm sure it may only be something minor that they can fix.

The rest of us will only be guessing

+1 does seem to be low, should be making it to +3 at least. Take it to a tuning shop and let them take it for a drive, they'll tell you if anything is wrong:D

For info: the +1 reading on a 34GTT factory boost gauge is equivalent to 14.2 PSi. So if Erik's car is stock the standard boost gauge should go to approx halfway between 0 and +1. Mine went closer to the 3/4 mark BEFORE any bleed valve was fitted, which "indicated" around 10psi, however stock boost is .55 bar / 7.9 psi.

After dyno testing I have discovered my factory boost gauge is out by approx 2psi - at least I know now.

Will look for pic of gauge to illustr8

Useless fact #4: +1 is Kg/cm2 which is 0.98 of 1 bar thus 14.2 psi...

Wow guys that's for the replies, I can't really reply due to Uni works Shit like hell.

nismoR34 my one has stock standard boost gauge, the max i can push only halfway and seems OMG it's so hell slow.

Where can i do dyno testing? I think I want to try it.

U guys all wanna take a look?

Caminperth , unfortunately I can't let anyone drive my car, if they just want to rape my turbo engine :(

    • My crystal ball says that when they replaced the pads, they didn't replace all of the brake hardware (could be a missing shim, pin, spring, etc).  Finding a low dust pad should be very easy. Have a google for things like, low dust / soft pad compound / easy on rotors. Your dust primarily comes from the rotors getting eaten up by the pads. 
    • I think old mate is going to continue to hold out for awhile at that price
    • OBD1 is a catch-all term for pre-OBD2 which could have basically any connector design and protocol. I really don't understand this attitude against using data logging for issues that can be multi-causal and subtle. A no-start situation or something like that sure the scan tool does nothing but if it runs like shit it can often be a sensor issue. When a friend of mine reliably had issues with his N54 not able to stay running eventually I narrowed down the issue to a faulty fuel pressure sensor. Only way I could do that was a scan tool to look at the fuel rail pressure and see shadow codes for fuel pressure. Then check against a pressure gauge. Is reflexively firing up the data logger probably a bad habit? I guess, it can encourage people to not listen/observe but on these old OBD1 cars just taking a log really doesn't do anything by itself. You still have to synthesize everything you know and think about what it all means.

    • Yeah saw that video on YouTube. But he got a R grade (repaired) high mileage model and proudly advertised the fact it was super cheap and no doubt with issues. I wouldn't be going the cheap and nasty route.
