Hi! We too just bought an allisport kit. A vnt turbo from turbo technics, upgraded Intercooler, mandrel bent exhaust and silicone hoses. We have also fitted an EGT gauge. Just wondering if you have done any pump adjustments? Do you have a boost gauge and if so what is it boosting to. Andrew from allisport said the turbo is pre set to 20psi and should not be touched! The hose from the turbo to the Intercooler gets really hot after only 5 minutes driving is that normal?we were going to try to turn the boost back as it is boosting straight up to 20 just touching it. We will be towing a camper van and were worried this is too much. Any info much appreciated!:)
I too have the Alisport intercooler and upgraded turbo. I had my full pump adjusted up, but my turbo is outputting 15psi. I wouldnt want any more than that. I don't have an egt though.
15psi is pretty much out of the factory.....Quote:

I to have just installed or in the middle of, great to here they go well, with all the Camel fruit it needs a bit of help... now finding a boost gauge in Zambia will be interesting...;)
cheers
Ebay have it shipped to your door along with a uber EGT gauge :DQuote:
