I just got my 2001 911 Turbo.. I love it!

Car feels, and pulls strong...

Max boost on the dash is .4! I beleive it should be .8?

What is the most common issue for boost loss on these cars? Is it possible the gauge is wrong? DV's? Piping? Spark plugs?

What do you guys think? I dont want to install my new software without the car being "right"

 

You need one of these my friend.................

 

Ya that might help.. LOL

 

What is the most common problem?

 

plug her in and get a bottle of soapy water and start sprayin away.....then look for mr bubbles.....

 

How about you do one whole test for all leaks, instead of wasting your time trying to single out ONE problem and missing other potential issues.

 

check your f hose. I replaced all my clamps to the f hose and y hose and dv's. Those spring clamps and I don't get along.....lots of bubbles

 

this does check the entire system. One of my boost hoses poped off at the intercooler while boost testing. Tighted c clamps and X-strapped all intercooler connections....holds 1.2 bar all day long!

 

Thanks guys! i plugged her into a scanner, and saw code P0045 Turbo charger boost control seloniod.. So I checked my vacuum lines, and found that one was popped off. I snapped it back in place.. Now I am at .7 boost.. HOLY LORD!

 

Great job. Wait till u experience 1.2 bar....
