BOOST ON DISCO S1 TD5

I WAS JUST WONDERING WHAT KIND OF BOOST YOU CAN RUN IN THESE THINGS. IVE JUST DONE A GROUND UP REBUILD OH AND WHAT BOOST DO THEY RUN STANDARD
dont shout
LOL
i think you have a typo or confused the TD5 where a S2 the TDI where a S1
if its a D2 you can run them upto 19 psi without the ecu going into overboost but by adding a boost box which tricks the ecu you can go upto 25psi but its not recomened as a blown TD5 engine is not cheap
i ran mine at 20psi with a VNT turbo ,i would recommend running around the 18psi it is still within safe running range but would also recommend a EGT temp reader to try control your egt's as higher temps will destroy everything
