Low Boost Reading G60

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys

Took a boost reading off my MFA in third gear up to the redline in my G60 and got 1860

I have a stage4 charger and 68mm pulley so I believe I should be getting around 2000.

 

please advise what the problem could be.

if that is low (and off hand I don't know if it is or not) check the engine pipework for boost leaks...

 

When was the charger last rebuilt (and who by?)? Low boost pressure could be the sign of a dodgy seal if it's suddenly gone down...

The charger was done about 4k ago by jabba, but its just been to JBS to have a new water pump fitted and they found the oil feed in the charger was blocked, have'nt had the car long (3 months) only just figued out the mfa.

:shock: wow you are lucky, it usually results in a self-destructed charger!

 

how did they check it by the way?

The guy at jbs says he always makes sure oil is getting through the charger before he put them back on, I don't know how he checked it though.
