TDI Boost pressure maxed out sensor?

[carl-1968]

I have heard that the sensor is only capeable of reading up to 22.5 psi? (1.5 bar). Can anyone conform this and what sutable replacement would be available to give me a range of 0 to 3 bar? and where to get one?. Thanks

Yep that's the one, I need a sensor with a bigger range to keep an eye on the boost levels

Haha darkside seem to come up in most searches ive done regarding tuning. I like to know what I've got or what is possible of doing so learning about my cars I've owned proves helpful with bits and pieces I've picked up from various models lol

Always worth asking as it seems a few of us have "projects" under a sheet in a garage somewhere, although it's a monster job the car needs quattro drive to go any further, if you do hear of any possible candidates please ask them to get in touch, a few beers would be purchesed for you assistance :thumbsup:
