is it tuned? stock you should only be getting about 10psi

is the awe diaphragm ripped?

have you checked for boost leaks?

you may need a new ecu though

Stock tune?

 

[Red5pade]

take it in and see if it can be updated. you might still be running an old version. vw will know

edit: if youre tuned, then the update should be in that tune. how long ago was it tuned? it may not have the update still if it was a long time ago

Hey bro.
thx for your replay listen can that dv ripped allready i have only maybe 1 year with it tomorrow i will check that, my car is not tuned i have carbonio intake ,awe dv,torque mount,bsg pcv fix, noice pipe delete ,my down pipe will arrive next week and that sit my friend, should I be good with those mods do you now more mods that i can do to help me gain more hp using my stock turbo my plan is to get in 13s lets get back were to look for my boost leak i have allso order new ic pipes but I will check the dv in the morning .

 

[mencho73]

yes my friend stock tune

 

[mencho73]

you mean my ecu!!!!

10psi is what you get on a stock tune. the boost will slowly go down towards the redline. thats normal. if you get a tune, you double that but will still lose boost closer you get to redline. the awe dv is prolly fine though. you shouldnt need new ic hoses. they have a tiny rubber seal inside them. if theyre clicked in and still losing boost, buy new seals. i think theyre like $5 or something stupid.

as for those mods, they really arent doing much of anything without a tune to be honest. your turbo is regulated to spool slow. essentially, your car doesnt try any harder than it should, even if its easier to. get a tune and profit

the thing that has me is that code. take it to vw and have them flash the updated ecu software... or get a tune (which will have the update built in). if that fixes it, great, but if not, youll need a new ecu

 

[Red5pade]

by ecu, i mean the computer in your car basically. you may need a new one.

Even with a downpipe, if you get into the 13's, anyone with only a simple Stage 1 tune will beat you. Without a tune your downpipe will hurt your low-end acceleration.

of it go`s directly to 10 psi in 3rd gear cause mine rise to 10 in 3rd and does`nt spaik then come to 10.

Like I said, that's normal on stock tune. Get a tune

Stock tune FSI will peak 12-13psi and by 5,000rpm or so (it's been very long since my car was stock turbo and stock tune), it'll drop to 10psi.

Very old thread on Vortex, but it looks like your ECU needs the OY update performed.

And for what it's worth, you probably won't hit 13's with just a DP. When I was on the stock tune with an intake and catless downpipe, I was hitting 14.3@97mph.
