Boost line feed is from back of the engine - cant remember exactly t pieced into a small pipe. MAF / 710n / bi pipe & f hose all replaced less than 6 months ago

Oh, & VAGCOM showed no faults ? What are the blocks to log for MAF & boost?

I have a boost gauge fitted as per the AW giude, it reads 17 psi boost when at WOT but lately I dont think the car is boosting properly, no rush of torque etc.
Could I have a boost leak and still show all Ok on the gauge?

Cheers

No plans for any more & am well happy with the current power

Just got my VAGCOM today , managed to run a fault scan and nothing serious appeared, How do I do log which tells me whats happening when I am driving, eg expected boost v actual boost , maf reading etc?
Cheers

(step by step if poss )

Well after getting the car fixed a couple of weeks ago, the turbos have tripped out again, on investigation today i found a pipe which didnt look to be sealed properly. I dont have VAG COM, It looks like I will have to get it from the states - any idea how long delivery time is? Also is there anyway...

LOL, was thinking exactly the same thing.
I will add it to my "to do" list
(currently scheduled for end October then

Wheel figure is 225 bhp with drag output at 88 bhp Zero, MAF is 2 weeks old , so I would hope that is unlikely - maybe I am reading the log thing wrong but thats the highest number on it (G70) Ooops, Just seen a 244 below it. I thought 208-220 was the reading for a std car. Mods are Miltech single e...

It will prob go down a bit with more miles to average over ( and a lot of the 45 was motorway at 70+ish ), but I was getting 27 even with the boost leak.

Well, I changed the TBB (burst at bottom) & F pipe (looked Ok but changed it anyway) I took my Car to Star Performance for an ECU reset & RR to check it out. Results:- Max Power 318 BHP at 98mph or 5290rpm :D Max Torque 372 lbf-ft at 75mph or 4050rpm :D :D Max Maf reading 239.11 Feels ace now with 4...

Mate- I wouldnt be driving the car hard - if you do have a boost leak and you over spin one a them turbos it will go pop and it will be time to shell out stacks a cash! Hope ya find the leak, easy enough if you know where to look Ok, just back in from garage, TBB has a split in the bottom underneat...

If your talking about the clips for the small vaccum hoses the just use cable ties on them this is what I've done after i replaced my DV's etc after suffering a similar problem. I'd also suggest getting it along to MRC for a health check if your still having problems No, I think he meant the main b...

I am currently running Pirrellis and dont like then. Back are needing replaced and I have just ordered 2 Khumos, will let you know what I think once I have had them on for a few weeks.

LOL, 710N's were fitted by me, any suspect pipes were also replaced so thats not the problem. Prevoius owner said it had been in twice in last year to get pipe onto offside turbo fitted back onto turbo as it had popped off, can you jubilee clip these on? I will ahve to get the tools out & check the ...

Well I discovered why I am getting so good MPG last night. Vagcom threw up a fault code - something to do with boost pressure devation will post more details when i get the log file. Rolling road showed that the turbos are boosting then immediatly shutting down, not holding the boost. Max BHP was on...
