    Just wondering what everyone else is getting for turbo boost on the d12 motor?

    I've got a 96 Volvo WIA with a D12 425hp, and I see a max of about 29 lbs of boost, usually it hovers around 25 lbs. This seems kind of low to me, but this is my first d12, so I'm not totally sure what to expect from it.

    Sounds good to me. 28psi under load is usually what I see.
