RE: outside/inside layers loose
the reason I added the new extruder and hotend was because the original was completely broken so no option to go back
RE: outside/inside layers loose
Owww. Unfortunately, not even GCODE is going to be portable to compare. The only assumption you can make I think is that if you stick with slicer defaults, you can rule out the slicer. FOr your new extruder and gears, is any custom GCODE required in each print?
RE: outside/inside layers loose
maybe I can try a extrusion multiplier of 0.45/0.29 = 1.55??

Your extruder needs calibration. It is very likely you have the wrong firmware installed; code that doesn't take into account the 3:1 gear reduction of your Bondtech extruder filament drive. Call Bondtech and get them to help you figure this out.
RE: outside/inside layers loose
Did you set your esteps to 890 and save it to the printers eeprom ? This under extrusion is the classic symptom of not doing that.

As Neophyl said.
Simply changing the flow fixes a single data point, the wall thickness in that test, but not all conditions that matter. Things like retraction, jerk, acceleration; they all play off the number of steps it takes to move the filament N millimeters. And that requires a fix down in the firmware (or cal constants as Neo mentioned). That's why a call to Bondtech might save you some headaches.
