2002 7.3 Ford Boost Pressure?
We have a F-250 4X4 with a 7.3 Diesel and 6 Speed Manual. I use a scan gauge to monitor engine data. We bought the truck new and it seems to be in very good shape but I am wondering where I can find...

1750 RPM under full load with an otherwise stock engine, you should be seeing around 7-8 psi. The stock turbo doesn't really light until about 1600 RPM. Drop a gear and hit 23-2400 and you will get closer to you max boost. Again stock, probalby not over 20 psi, likely 16-18.
The oil on the boots is from the crank case venting into the intake, and is "normal". Some delete it, others don't.
DieselSite has replacement boots that aren't affected by the oil residue.
RiffRaff diesel also has quality replacement boots.
Both also sell a billet compressor wheel that will increase your boost pressure, reduce or eliminate surge, and help with EGTs.
