K14 Compressor map, how do I read it?
« on: November 02, 2007, 07:15:48 am »



Can anyone explain how to read this?   :shock:   I've read in lots of posts that a particular turbo "blows hot air" after a certain psi etc. . . but how do you know where that is?
thanks!

Check out this thread. I did calculations to determine if surging was present but the basic info on reading the turbo maps is also there. http://www.vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=10313&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15 Cheers Dan
