Need Help Verfying Boost Numbers
Just install Triple Dog and Outlook on my 04.5 CTD and the most boost I'm seeing is 22 psi. Are these numbers normal for a stock turbo. Seems a little low to me. Pulls real hard from the bottom, but seems a little enemic on top.
Thanks in advance for your responses, Tim |

You should be seeing around 30 psi. Try the boost fooler, you need one anyways. Where do you have your guage hooked up?

mine was around 22-25 stock 32 with the bddl
|
On my 04.5 completely stock the boost spiked to about 32psi and would sustain 28-30psi on WOT. This is about the norm for 04.5 and up stock boost.
Seems like your seeing below stock readings. I assume the Outlook is getting boost readings from the ECM, but I don't know for sure. Is there some setting on the Outlook that would limit boost?? |
I couldn't find anything in the instructions that would limit boost
|
I'm hooked to the ECM through my Outlook. I need to check my peaks in the Outlook to see what it says.

Just ordered the Boost Fooler.
Thanks |

hmmm, still seems very low, is that with a auto or standard? You may have some slipping in either your tq or in the clutch (depending on auto or tranny) that could cause you to not reach full boost
