No turbo pressure on 617a
No turbo pressure on 617a
I put a Om617a in my W460 G wagon, but it really lack on power.
Put on a meter to measure the turbo boost.
It does 0,3bar at max rpm. From idle to 3000rpm there is no pressure.
This is my first turbo engine, so have no experience on this field.
What could be wrong and how to fix this?

If your boost goes up to 20 psi you just need to adjust or add the controller. If not something else needs looking at.

It only goes to 13psi when I take off the hose for wastegate.
Does this mean that the turbo is worn out?
Exhaust gasket is tight.
13psi, is fine, but it should hit higher without a WG hose. You might have clogged fuel filters too.

Fuel strainer clear?
Fuel tank vent clear?
Primary filter clear?
main fuel filter clear?
injectors built properly?
valves adjusted properly?
chain stretch within spec?
IP timed properly?
is ALDA restricting fuel improperly?
is wastegate leaking?(you tested this with the hose removed)

I saw this youtube video, and I guess my problem could be carbon in the turbo.
