what is the stock wastegate set at? 1g dsm 14b.thanks

 

8 psi,once in a while it creep to 9 or 10

 

mine holds 7.5psi rock steady.

 

hmmm. i know my friend chris has a 92 awd tsi and when he got it "stock" he was runing 11psi, but there were a few hacks done that came off dsmtuners.com i think.

also my cosuin has a 94 dsm and it was running 9psi, so idk, when my ls was running 1 stock boost was like 8-9. but who knows, internal wg can suck, but there not all that bad, i like external more thow, especialy because of them not boost spiking.

 

Factory DSM had a solenoid to keep boost at 8psi when the motor is cold and 10psi when warmed up.

So in actual fact the wastegate is set at 8psi

 

nice, i was worried that it was set at 11 psi which is more than i was looking for. waiting on my missing link and i will get to find out for sure.

 

what would you suggest, uberdata?

 

If your OBD1 yes.

 

You guys are all wrong.


It is a 9psi wastegate acuator. If your getting more or less your ------- something up. Could be a million things, too much boost = boost creep aka overrunning the amount of air you can flow through the internal wastegate.

Too little boost = your wastegate flapper is getting blow open because you have a busted actuator, or you have shot journal bearings, ect...
