Well, finally I get the boost guage line set in the post yesturday and installled last night to see some numbers.
THe unit is the VDO, white face in PSI..Pounds per Square Inch NOT BAR.
I tapped into the vacuum line that goes from the ECU to the FPR "T" and the Intake manifold. All fittings are brass NPT 1/8 threaded bits with teflon tape to seal the threads and Otiker hose clamps.
At startup, car idles perfectly at a rock steady 900 RPMS.
Boost guage at idle is about 13-14 NEGATIVE PSI
Took her out for a drive I get around a maximum boost gauge reading of around 15 PSI positiive boost.
Anyone with any thoughts about the glowing turbo with these boost output numbers.
Thanks!
Joe
