Default Turbo boost

Tried searching this but could not find. How many bar does a stock 993 engine produce? I believe it is .8, what is that in pounds?

Thx

One bar = 14 pounds, so .8 = 11.2 pounds

Stock 993 produces 0 bar boost

Stock 993tt:

Proper Boost Levels - Have the mechanic take the car out and floor it in 3rd gear above 3,000 RPM. The boost should build quickly and the digital boost gauge should read .8 BAR. If the digital boost gauge reads a maximum of .5 BAR, the Motronic ECU is going into the "Limp" mode protecting the engine by limiting the boost. This is an indication of a possible severe problem. If .5 BAR is the maximum boost produced, the car needs to be taken to a dealership and the fault codes should be read to find what's wrong with the car.

0.8? You do the math.
