hi all my GTI is ill :( a garage is looking into the problem but is seeming a bit of a pain to locate the problem
car was stage 1 revo which seemed fine i never felt a problem with car, got fmic and rs4 valve fitted and was going to get revo stage 2+ installed as well, but garage had tec difficultys installing 2+ so said to come back next day, i drove car home and it felt sh*t no power, wemt back next day and got 2+ fitted, car was pulling timing advance to -12 :(, DV was checked PCV and pipes changed, new spark plugs, injector cleaner, all no change :(, so now car is back to VW map, this seemes to of cured a lot of probs but its still ill :(, for the past 4 days its been boosting at around 9-10 psi with no timing pull, but yesterday it started to not boost all i could get was a max of 1 psi, now today i start it up and take it out its now pulling -12 timing :( on VW stock map :( :(
cheers in advance for any info on problem
