OK, so I upgrade from vnt15 to vnt17... entire manifold fwiw, turbo already installed.
Is there an adjustment procedure? As far as I know it wasn't adjusted to any car. *Guessing* (though I'll find out for sure soon), it was a rebuild, bench tested for 'whatever', etc, but never setup for a tdi.
So is there a procedure for this?
I'm asking 'cause I have some serious boost. Low or high rpm, all over... But I can get sustained boost way in excess of 25. I've seen 30 already, and I've yet to hit WOT.
I took a mirror and did the "-1 VNT". While doing this I would swear to you that the rod was the shortest it could ever be. Certainly there was only *one* direction I could even turn the rod. While under the car looking up at the turbo the rod was turned counter clockwise one full turn.
I don't think the adjustment did squat to my performance. I still have seriously high boost, and again easily see 30 in 2nd gear waiting until around 3k to give it some go-pedal, just to be nice to the lower RPM range.
