TURBO BOOST GAUGE PLUMBING - UPDATE

(1/2) > >>

bambamjj:
Hi All

Where is the best place to plumb in a turbo boost gauge to check my tweaks, any photos etc would be appreciated.  :D

bambamjj:
Just been out and had a ook to see what i could see.

From the hose on the outlet side of the turbo there appears to be a 'T' piece with some braided tube going of somewher, but also a small tube, looks like breather pipe going round the back of the engine adnconnects to the top of the injector pump, on the cover for the diapragm.  Is this what i need to connect to?

If so what end is more accurate, turbo end or pump end.

help really appreciated.

You can T into the small pipe on the waste gate or t into the small pipe that goes to the fuel pump diaphragm.

Waste gate, U shape pipe





Injector pump. Thin black pipe

Thanks wizard, but im afraid to say  :oops: What or where is the waste gate?  :oops: :oops:

wizard:
In the top picture its the can shaped object with the rod poking out of one end.
If you have a 300 Tdi the layout will be a bit defferent but you will have the same object attached to the turbo.
On the botton of the waste gate actuator(can  shaped object with the rod poking out of one end) you will see a small rubber tube linking into a small pipe on the turbo. You can T into this.

wizard
