Hi all,
What should the Standard Boost be on a 97-98 V70R Auto 2wd.

Cheers Dicky.

Hi Dicky, should be 7-9 psi.

Really Gaz, I've just fitted a Boost Gauge (Auto Gauge one) and at

Idle it sits at about - 19,20 psi...

In Sport, Full chat, Foot to the floor...Peaks at 12-13ish psi.

As far as i know, my car is Standard.....??

The Gauge was only cheapish, so it could be that, We'll have a looky next time we meet.

Cheers, Dicky.

To get -19.20 psi ain't possible, -14.5 is about the theoretical limit and you'ld be unlikely to see that in practice. Assuming the gauge sits at zero with nothing running, I'd try scaling your readings by a factor of about 13/19 which give about 8 psi boost.......
