Whats your vacuum at idle?
Friday, February 10, 2006 10:18 PM
hey guys,
noticed on my way home that the cavy was not hitting its full boost, and at idle she was at ~16 vacuum. I thought she usually idles at 20+. Anybody have a boost/vac gauge to confirm this? Coudln't find a leak when i disconnected gauge.

weird.
