Experiment today have shown me that the auto can severely detune the 3000rpm and under area.
Deloaded the wastegate by making the actuator arm 1mm longer than just sliding onto the wastegate mount...
Reset ECU.
Thing drove the smoothest it has for a long time, will sit on one speed at cruise nicely.
Was still hitting 20psi then settling at 19psi through rev range.
Slower and less severe spool at mid throttle.
Less movement of manifold pressure at cruise and mild input.
Then 3/4 of a tank later....TCU is interfering somehow and screwing things up, now does not want to go positive boost at all under 2500!
Just hates on you when you slowly feed throttle on in higher gears.
Going to try the actuator where it is and drive on wastegate pressure only tomorrow or Monday after resetting ECU of course.
What have I learnt; the current Turbo too small for flow of motor with those headers....
auto was changing superbly this morning, just superbly with slower spool... TCU is a piece of sh!t thing
Will have a crack with Matt at trying to retune with the WG slightly open and change boost/requested tq/ wg/ throttle opening strategy to suit.
Starting to think I need to go with the external boost control theory I am forming. Well while I have the auto anyways....
What does the forum think?

Noticeable smoother running....than 10w40.
WG & EBC back to previous setup all good.
Gonna see how goes on FWay run tonight.

What oil are you using? I did a flush on mine and went with ULX110 10W-30 mineral oil (recommended to me via a friend who uses it via S&J) , it seems to be pretty good so far.
