    Hey all,

    Wondering if anyone has seen this before.

    I had a greddy profect B II all setup and running fine boosting to 14PSI, although the wiring couldnt reach where I wanted so i lengthened it. Now it wont boost past safety boost. I've clearly done something, but unsure what. The new wiring was tested for connectivity and that was ok.

    anyone in vic have one I can swap out for to test?

    Safety boost ?!

    So you still have the stock boost safety solenoids connected ?
    Or the profecs set limit ?

    I'm guessing wastegate pressure (which is what safety boost is) due to the profec solenoid being open. Possible you crossed the wires? Did you have to lengthen all the wires or just some? Depending on the jointing you used there could be too much resistance in one of the lines

    stock boost solenoids gone, so not that, I checked the wires arent crossed so not that, i just had to lengthen the wires that go to the solenoid. Just soldered them together. So could be what you say.I know F all about electronics, so thought that would do it. What connection type should I use?

    Cheers
