    Pierburgs been relocated, suggests its had a bleed valve or other boost control in its time.

    Is it relatively standard? Does it have an atmosphereic DV down there somewhere?

    Its a GT3 engine in a P reg.

    As I said in the other post, unplug it and see what stops working. Its not original and looks like a bodge.

    Infact if you bought it from a used car place Id complain!
