Hi all
Cheers cusco my cars still work in progress tbh mate ! Had my fella fit my original good motor from my old bugeye ,then after a week I manage to totally strip 3rd gear , so much to his indoors dismay had him change the box on it too for me hahaha Didn't tell him but was enjoying a shall we say brisk drive lol put it in 3rd and all hell broke loose hahaha ,he stripped the old box and found only half of third gear left :) Still got lots of stuff with it I'm not happy with but for now all is good ,and would love to attend a few shows possibly but Tameside is a long way from me :)

Have you tried cleaning the boost solenoid aswell as they get bit gummed up over time quick squirt of wd or brake cleaner down both outlets usually helps

Boost solinoid issue
Yeah just spotted the standalone map sensor just helps to know Take it all the settings on the power commander are ok in terms of boost setting etc Been a while since used an apexi tbh

Boost solinoid issue
Also as temporary measure try looping the pipe from the wastegate actuator straight to the nipple in the turbo compressor intake This will check your turbo is boosting up to wastegate pressure (std boost) Will also help to eliminate were the problem actually is

Boost solinoid issue
You should find your ecu pinout here https://www.xcceleration.com/pinouts.htm Open whichever diagram is for your car and check what the location of the boost solenoid wires are on the pinout !!! Use a multimeter to check for continuity by putting one probe in the correct pin on multiplug then put other probe at the boost solenoid plug end ,multimeter should beep if ok and repeat for the other wire on solenoid plug too This should tell you if the wiring from ecu to the solenoid is ok
