    As above - 1 bar is a bloody high spike!!
    have you a boost controller fitted?
    and what dump valve arrangement is on the car?

    well with this boost gauge i can check what the peak boost was and it was off the clock after a lot of the runs...
    i dont have a boost controller....its a recirculating dump valve
    the boost gauge also tells beeps at me when its gone over a certain level of boost and when it did beep by the time a had looked at it it had gone down again so its only for a very short time

    is it an eletronic or mechanical guage, chance a different guage to be sure you can rule that out. get it sorted before CW nehow.

    Weird problem mate!
    have you checked actuator hose? if its a bit kinked or too long
    actuator response will be slow.
