not sure. Which vagcom block would it be. Maybe i logged it the other day.. if not i could pop out and log it today

Log block 230 for actual vs requested fuel rail pressure. :smiley:

I already logged actual rail pressure with the open filter. Do i need both requested and actual though?

When I had my last fr k03 I bought an itg kept it on about 3 weeks I found the noise fairly annoying but power was poor below 3000rpm it was like the car was bogging down between 1800rpm and 3000rpm and that was running Revo software although the car did pull harder higher up the rev range.
As already said it seemed to be a trade off for low down drivability for high revs power.
I went back to a panel filter and the car was much livelier under normal driving.

I fitted an intake but it made the power move higher up. That is okay for track day cars but for a road car it is a pain as you lose the low end grunt. I asked Nick from R Tech regarding the OE airbox and going to Stage 2+. This was his reply below
The ED30 makes good power with easy due to turbine volumetric efficiency and increased flow outward bounds. The ED30s tune to 300bhp with easy with just the stock paper filters in place. I cannot see the stock air box with a good air filter being too much of an issue for 275-280bhp on a k03. If your going HFPF then a lot of the power gain comes from combustion efficiency and room to run more timing.
So I switched back to the OE box and the car runs much better than with an intake. Plus the intake was too noisy for my liking. I am now of the opinion that VW have invested millions into R&D and know there stuff when it comes to this and what works for the engine. I have tried different modified parts and have now gone totally OE parts again on the engine, apart from the exhaust, panel air filter and boost hoses. The cars drives much smoother and performs loads better :happy2:

VW have invested millions into R&D with the aim of producing a quiet car which satisfies an average generic customer, not mad enthusiasts like many of us here. I don't like it quiet! I want to hear what's going on under my bonnet and elsewhere.
All I can say is that my Revo Stage 2 K03 car with a Twintake makes more power and runs even better than it did with stock intake. Even running a Carbonio scoop improved torque and response although by a very small percentage.
