Boost loss
« on: September 14, 2013, 10:35:12 pm »
Right managed to get some logs done on VCDS.  There's no faults present but, not making anywhere near specified boost!

Fueling is okay as actual meets requested. Attached a screen shot as wasn't sure how to put a table on here. Anyone help?

Drop something into the turbo?  Thats all I can think of.

Not missing any bits of the intake as was really careful so can't imagine I've done that  :chicken:

What the best way of checking, borescope in the turbo inlet?

Going to get a smoke/pressure test. Will check the intercooler pipes as heard they commonly go.
