Turbo lifespan
TimM:
arightpest has one plumbed into his 200, I'm going to have a look shortly (or at the next glass meet).
gords:
I plumbed in the boost gauge, went for a drive and I get a tad over 1 bar at 2500rpm (ish) and full throttle. So can I assume the turbo is fully functioning?
I tried to get the plastic plug thing out of the sedimenter, it turned a bit each way but didn't feel like it wanted to actually undo 8-[ I so did not want it to snap off, so I've left it for now.
Is it a plastic screw into the metal body of the sedimenter? Any suggestions for ensuring it comes undone without breaking?
Xtremeteam:
stop messing about with the sedimentor as it will start to cause you more problems than you will cure if you disturb the pipes,if its doin over 1 bar or 14.7 psi its boosting slightly higher than spec

I would suspect that its not the turbo being faulty though.

Did someone say you were? :?
Surely it had to be the first thing to test and eliminate?! I shall give the intercooler a jolly good clean over the weekend ... fingers crossed!
