Thanks. Definitely worth the effort i think.

After a new lambda, good used maf (thanks dazza), new Volvo plugs, coilpacks, leads etc the car is running 100% again. Today I fitted a new boost gauge as the old one was too dimly lit in the sun for me to see. Now I have a double pillar pod with boost and AFR gauges. Took the car out and played with the fuel pressure and boost until I had good afrs and good boost. Boost is now peaking at 2bar and holding 1.7-1.8bar. Goes pretty well lol
