As per title really. What sets the level of boost that the Turbo's are running at and what is the norm. Please. M12 (2.5) T25's and what would be expected if it was running T28's?
Ta, Marc

On a 2.5 the actuators set boost level. There is no boost solenoid. Expect 10psi on T25s. T28s, depends on actuator pressure.

10 PSI, would be 0.7bar. The reason I ask is that on hard acceleration, mine boosts at 1.1 bar (15.7 PSI), I have recent receipts for new turbo's fitted and upgraded. Would this be likely the boost figure for T28's as I have yet to physically confirm the turbo's fitted.

Depends on what actuators were fitted. 1.1 bar is way over standard. I sincerely hope your ECU was re-mapped!

you need to get the car checked out and make sure its not lean / detting under that much boost

The car, seems to run fine. Well actually, it runs very well. I have receipts for work and servicing since day one - over 13K's worth. Nearly all carried out at either Mole, or Plans.
