Frax Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 You will need to fit a boost gauge, Max boost should be no more than 12 psi - have a look in the tech section, lots of info on how to do it there. Frax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cackshifter Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Don't want to be anal but spec in my 300tdi manual suggests 13.5-15.5 psi (.93-1.07 bar); any special reason for saying 12? I thought if you want to burn diesel more air is generally good? Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jad Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 12psi is for the 200tdi, 0.8 bar, the 300 is 14.5psi, 1 bar as standard. people do run up to a max of about 1.2ish but you take your own risks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frax Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Sorry should have quoted 300tdi not 200tdi. Frax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
