    Just received an email from Diesel Spec, they said Turbo Boost should be between 40 to 48 PSI.
    Over 50 PSI probably would cause Turbo failure.

    Ok you will have to wait and see what yours does on Monday then. I'd say they've seen alot of turbo failures cos they go to 40 max standard

    Are you sure he's selling Diesel Spec Products. What I've read over the last couple of months suggested to me that Diesel Spec products were better than J Ball Products and are better to deal with, that's why I went with Diesel Spec.
    When I rang J Ball all I got was an answering machine but when I rang Diesel Spec I always talked to Ian and he was happy to do so.

    Not totally sure hopefully someone can clarafi for us, then we would get into pdi being affiliated with diesel spec also. And that's off subject. Any way look forward to you posting your results. Keep eye on boost and pyro and ya fuel usage . Hope it works out for you
