Hi,
I read recently of Citroen's Xsara 1.6 litre DTi 110bhp new vehicle with 'Overboost' and was curious for some details.
That is a fairly high power output for a 1.6 diesel. I guess that's with the aforementioned boost is it? What turbo boost pressure is considered 'overboost'? (My old Vectra DTH runs at about 1 bar maximum pressure.)
It seems to be only for short term requirements so what determines the time it is allowed for? In the middle of a difficult overtaking manouvre is it going to time out on you and leave you caught short, or what?
Amyone with inside knowledge of this vehicle out there, could you enlighten me, please? Citroen's website is quite uninformative. This is just out of genuine curiosity - I don't have a broken one.
Tony.
