Stage 2 with all supporting mods.
I know one of my intercooler pipes essentially blew off on the way back from inters buuuut since reseating and securing i still am not 100% confident im holding boost.
Before i swear the gauge boosted to 25 dropped to 20 and held, but now it seems to boost to 20-22. hold and then higher rev range drops to 15 amd holds.
Is that right for a stage 2? i though that was more stage 1 levels..
Anyone any thoughts? am rtempted to peform a smoke test
Have a new intercooler (fmic) and will be fitting shortly but in the mean time anyone got any ideas as to whether thats right or it doesnt seem 100%? It still pulls damn well though!!

Boost 8 is 1.4bar(20psi)
Boost 9 is 1.5bar(22psi)
Ahhh that's on an edition 30... not sure if gti is the same...

Log it with vagcom, block 115 will show requested vs actual values.

Nope, regular ol'k03
Cheers PDT ill do that on monday :happy2:

mines 2+ and gets to 25 then drops rather rapidly to 15, logged it and im not meeting specified boost.
-
well that definately sounds like a leak :scared:
-
At stage 2 k03 myself, have a liquid golf installed and get 22psi max?
