thats quite alot isnt it?

my diesel runs 20psi(1.4bar) max and i thort diesels ran alot higher than petrols.

Serious

Not the same thing, DEViANCE, the compression from the turbo is 1.4, the actual engine compression is far higher than that ;)

yeah i know compression ratios on diesels are higher than petrols but thort turbo boost pressure was too.

1.4 is high, but not unheard of. My friend has a 200sx and runs his at 1.4 Bar most of the time.

Its fairly high I guess but a lot of scoobs run much higher.

Dont forget that its custom tuned to that level as well, ie not just the boost turned up. Its mapped well within the safety margins of the engine ie enough fuelling, no det or knocking etc etc..
