How much boost - TDi

Post by matsmad »

I just installed an aftermarket boost gauge and under load (ie driving) it reads max 17psi. Is this right???

How do you think it pumps out 200lb ft and 112 bhp from a little 2.5 four.
It`s also the reason heads/gaskets let go more than occasionaly.

Not quite. Factory spec for 200TDi 0.82 Bar (12psi) measured at wastegate. 300 Tdi is 1.05 Bar (15psi) - so slightly less than I said above.
