    Tech 2 and boost

    Hi am sorry for pestering you but I have done everything can boost be altered with tech 2

    I did head gasket and now it boosts at 2500-3000 rpm it used to boost around 1800 rpm

    I replaced intake manifold
    Swirl flap actuator
    Egr stuff a few month ago all was perfect I just did head gasket last week as precaution

    I checked selinoid
    Vac pump
    And replaced vac lines

    Vectra c 1.9 cdti z19dth


    Thank you

    I'm not aware of any setting in Tech2 for boost, it's not anything I've ever looked for.

    Engines aren't my expertise so I can't offer any more suggestions myself.

    2500-3000rpm is fully normal for oem engine if you want to get boost on lower rpm you need a remap and its not a tech2 job

    It was around 2200 for full boost and I could feel turbo at 1800 now I don't feel a thing until 2700 then it takes off like a rocket

    Hi.
    After you repair your injectors, have a look at the diesel particle filter and check the boost pressure valve.
