Default Stock Boost for a 2002 1.8T

Sup guys..have a basic question...whats the stock boost for a 1.8T? I just had a boost gauge installed and when at idle it says 6psi but when I'm driving it hits 11PSi..just wondering. Thanks

Your car makes 6 psi at idle?? It should be under vacuum at idle and not making any boost unless you have the quickest spooling turbo known to man.

I would say your gauge is junk, return it and get your money back, as far as stock boost goes you should see 7psi (ECU controlled)

Sorry guys, what he meant is in netural and revs it hits 6psi, idle is about 22 on the vac side.

But under a full load it is hitting 11psi.
