Hey Snicko looking good, I am looking at taking the plunge with a 2003 GUIII 3L and I am trying to figure out how much it will cost to do the NADS? do you mind if I ask how much the whole catastrophe set you back? cheers

As the temp was a bit high and I hadn't had the needle valve fitted today I fixed it. My trusty mechanic used his patience again and I was back. hahaha

It's now reading 480 Degress at 15 psi full noise.

That's good snicko, you must keep it below 500, over that for prolonged period will melt pistons. ouch!!
Cheers Rod.

Hi Guys

Hooked the camper on and went for a drive. On the flat at 100kmh 4th gear its doing 3100 revs 300-350 degrees at 13psi. (Constant speed)
At the worst going up hills it got up to 525 degrees at 15psi

When we got home the car smelt really hot.

BTW Hubby is very cross with me. The high temp melted the rubber we have on the back to stop stones when the camper is hooked up!!
And he can't see what all the fuss is about (NADS)!! So I'm copping it!! hahahahahha

general question. any reason why you would take the boost gauge off that side of the intercooler. i have mine on the other side.. is there any difference in readings?

What are the exhaust gas temps of a standard 3LTD 2006 (non common rail) from the factory? Does anyone know?
