Extreme idle hunting, help!

Idle hunting goes crazy if idle is set below 1500rpm, and then randomly goes off when the car is warm and the fan kicks in. I have noticed the revs drop substantially when brakes/lights/fan are on rather than raise, the idle up adjustment doesn't seem to make any difference. I have replaced all vacc...

Highest boost pressure engine can safely handle?

Saw a video on a guy running 20 psi and his city getting off the clock. Obviously that's pretty extreme but what have other people set there's to and still felt safe about not blowing the engine up?

Re: Digital speedo playing up

*Update

Hi my t1 digital speedo cuts in and out, working briefly if I get my hand up the fuse compartment and wriggle the plug for it. I've taken the speedo out several times, re-tensioned the plug and socket filliments for a stronger bond but that didn't help. I know of someone else having the same issue, ...

T1 idles like a tractor and clogs up in low revs

Hi I'm new to city turbos and need some guidance. I bought a t1 off an absolute munta who was turning into a track car, I'm in the process of saving it. Issues I'm stuck with now, groggy as hell idle and under low revs (cruising at 50km) and especially in 1st gear it clogs up like its over fueling a...
