Hi All. I recently purchased a 991.1 Turbo S (a late 2013 model) Hi All. I recently purchased a 991.1 Turbo S (a late 2013 model with only 11,000 miles on the clock).
I wanted to ask what it the boost pressure when WOT? 9 times out of 10 I only see a maximum of 0.6 bar of boost when WOT in all three modes - normal, sport and sport + modes. That's 0.6 bar of boost when WOT throughout the rev range (most of the pulls I have done are from 3500RPM all the way to the red line in 3rd, 4th and 5th gears). Sometimes my turbo boost reading is displayed in orange which indicates the over boost function is activated but the boost doesn't surpass 0.5 bar of boost for the whole duration that I am WOT whilst it is orange.
The very few times that I have seen 1.0-1.2 bar of boost is from low speeds the majority of the time when in 1st and 2nd gear. But 9 times out of 10 I don't get past 0.6 bar of boost and the car feels much slower than when it slingshots forward at 1-1.2 bar. I have probably launched the car 30 times in a couple of weeks. I have a Dragy device and the best 62-124MPH (100-200KMH) time I can get is only 8.5 seconds.
As I understand I should experience between 0.9-1.0 bar of boost throughout the rev range.
Do I have a turbo boost issue? Any ideas what it could be?
Thank you in advance.
