12 is the factory setting. Low boost can be a weak spring in the waste gate, can also be a clogged line to the alda, or alda not properly adjusted. really low fuel pressure can do it also. After checking everything on mine the boost came up to 9psi, then the rest was waste gate adjustment. Also check to be sure the throttle linkages do indead move the throttle all the way to its stop.

9psi is the factory setting for all 300D/CD/TD and SD models.
