as the title says,,whats the standard boost for a 2.5l turbo diesel courier,,just fitted a guage to mine and its reading 12 pounds...and does not go into the vacuum(-) side at all.....just wondering if the guage is faulty or thats what its supposed to be....

Dont know if 12psi boost is right, but it dosent sound to bad.
As for not reading neg, Diesels dont. As they dont have vacuum on the intake or something like that. Probably the same reason why you cant put a BOV on a diesel. No butterfly valve.
