Having a few problems at the moment. Down pipe fell off Fixed that though.
Found the blow off valve was leaking, so that was plugged. Now the boost has gone from
4 psi up to 7 psi steady. But i'm now getting detonation under full load at high rpm.

Think i need the megasquirt ECU fitting so i can get it all mapped

Oh also blew a water cooling pipe off the turbo Still to fit that.

What octane of fuel are you able to use? I got detanation at around 8psi with my 2.0 CVH Escort on 93 octane, intercooled. Now I'm running dished piston's from a 1.9 CVH with the 2.0 head, it lowerd the compression quite abit, now I can run as high as 17-20psi with out detonation, stock computer and ignition timing. Goes like a fat chick for a twinkie.

I think our fuel is 96 octane. The detanation I'm getting is due to the Ford EEc iv. There is no ignition retard when the boost rises. The megasquirt ECU should fixe that though as it has a map sensor.
