standard 1.8T peaking at 0.5 bar?
« on: 07 January 2012, 18:28 »
just had boost gauge fitted and when "putting foot down" peaks at about 0.5 bar (7psi) is this normal/ correct?

thanks, glad i have it fitted now as will be able to tell if any leaks/ problems with boost  :smiley:

I believe 7psi is about right for standard boost
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
