boost

Hi Guy's, Got round to fitting my boost and oil temp gauges today, fitted the halfords ones. My boost is peaking at 22psi and settling between 17 and 18psi. Obviously modified to my signature but is it anygood?

hi all. was doing some research on some logs i had from before to see if the timing pulling in block 20 on vag com effected the actual boost produced from the car. i did a log where i ran to the red line in third or fourth cant remember which exactly, and found that when the cf's...

Hey everyone, Getting really annoyed searching for boost gauges now, been through loads, but can't find one I'm sure I saw on here somewhere. Basically I want one that matches well with the LCR dials, so a white backed with red illumination would be perfect, but if someone can show pics of...

Looking at getting a boost gauge for my LCR soon, and want something that matches the standard LCR dials as best as they can, Will prob also get a Nomad pillar pod, is the cheapest place direct from nomad as this is around £40 from them?

Got my leon fr tdi last week and got it remapped. What a hoot to drive!!!! serious serious pace! I noticed though after giving it some welly, there was a sudden power loss when on quick change from 3rd to 4th at 4k revs at bout 65-70 when you change into 4th the boost seemed to hesitate for a...

Right, I'm guessing that these are resistors to adjust the boost so that the ecu reads ok. Now these resistors got burnt (this picture was before). I have taken these out, and as soon as i get to about 3,500 revs, the car goes into limp mode. What resistors do I need? Can I get a variable...

Hi all I’m trying to get to the bottom of smoke issue that has developed as a result of installing aftermarket boost pipes, (SFS). The issue began after installing a full silicone set, and has now become worse after installing a set with alloy sections. The car: Cupra TDI, non mapped...

I have a 53 plate leon cupra and lately I have been feeling that the car is not running as it should be. It's hard to describe but here goes! It feels as though it's boosting when Im not trying to, and is ALWAYS in 1st and 2nd gear. It boosts for about 2-3 seconds and then you hear the release...

Should boost pressure hold or is it nomal to drop? mine peaks to about 18 psi then seems to drop to about 15 psi.

After fitting the Allard pipework upgrade and running the boost gauge from the EGR, there is a squeal between 18 and 24psi ish. I have renewed the pipe from the EGR to the gauge itself and the squeal is still there. Has anyone else had this happen? Cheers in advance
