Turbo
Posted: Sat Nov 11, 2000 11:03 am
I have read somewhere I am sure it is 13.5 psi, but apparantly the earlier the turbo 90-94 before the new model you could go this high and maybe a little bit more.
It also makes a difference where you have placed the turbo gauge pipe as I have put mine coming off the turbo nipple itself, (bad idea) where it reads 11.56 apparantly if I had put this on the manifold itself it will read less psi and is a much more accurate place to have it, this is also a much better place to put the pipe for a boost adjuster valve as it is what the engine is actually getting and results in the turbo pressure and engine revs being more fairly matched to what the engine wants and can handle.
This guy seems to think the same thing

no I didnt.
But apparently somewhere round about 14psi or so. I am running upto 10psi
and no problems so far.
No one has been very helpful in helping me with the boost cut
