rossky Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Hi, Im looking to go buy a 99TT6 next sat. I have read the buying guide which is excellent. Im just wondering could someone post a pic of the std facelift boost gauge on full boost as I suppose it is a sort of health check for turbos. I would also appreciate if anyone could add anything else essential that I may miss. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I wouldn't worry so much about the stock boost gauge. It doesn't really go for much, it's almost an on/off kind of reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Yeah, it's meaningless. There's no scale or marking and the needle pegs at maximum under pretty much any boost pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
