LLY: Low boost???

[RZRSharp]

So I got my banks PDA hooked up today. I put it on the stock setting just to see where I was at as far as readings.

My boost seems awful low to me. I'm new to diesels so I could be wrong.

When I get in the throttle the highest I could get the boost was 15psi.

Just normal acceleration between gears it never gets over 3 psi...

Is this normal or do I really have low boost?

15 does sound low. On stock tuning you should be able to go past 20 psi. Didn't you say you had a smoke issue? Low boost = smoke. Check your connections from the turbo to the intercooler. Power steering lines almost rubbed a hole in my driverside boost tube.

Thanks. That makes sense about the smoke. I'll look at it tomorrow.

Would my low boost have anything to do with getting my p1093 code?

Still haven't found the leak btw.

Thanks

1093 is low fuel rail pressure. Change your fuel filter first. But could be a weak FPRV
