    What I wanted to know are the reading at idle.
    Not that it matters anymore, the engine failed this moring.
    Looks like everything is stuck this time. Belt looks fine, don''t know what happend yet.
    I'll think it's time to take it appart right know for a rebuild.

    Bad luck again Marc, and just for the record, I get the same boost readings, @ -0.5 at idle going down to @ -0.9 on the overrun.

    So is the rebuilt motor going to get some nice shiny new internals?

    That's possible, but depents on the pricing of the shiny parts.
    I would like to build a bit more powerful engine, than stock, but I would also like reliability. The car is for fun, no longer a daily driver. And reliability and powerful are normally two things that not always go together.

    I have seen some very nice parts in different threads. Especially the parts which are devoloped by Evodelta? But I don't know if they are commercialy available or that I can afford them
