Late Boost??

[my-first-306]

Hi all

My standard ph1 D turbo doesn't boost in second until 3.5k and 3k in 3rd 4th and 5th

is this normal or is something wrong? its standard apart from a straight through exhaust

Should start around 2k depending on which bine you have

Something is wrong, Is it chuffing black smoke? Do you have a boost gauge?

[my-first-306]

no smoke what so ever and I turned the pump up earlier? and no boost gauge as yet

are you talking full boost? because that's where it should be by then.

done cambelt kit, made sure there was no boost leaks, gave the pump a tweak and it goes a lot better now,

also ditched the standard air box but not sure if I can put up with the extra noise lol
