i own a tt, 1.8t. iam confused of what the fuck is wrong with the car, had brian at eurotech change all faulty vaccum hoses, re-programed the ecu from APR to GIAC, i changed the diverter valve to a stratmoshpere valve with a strong spring, i also changed the waste gate spring. but anyways after all that my car still does the crazy shit its been doing for a while now. under normal driving situations the car drives fine.
but as soon as i get on the gas here is a list of the following that either happens:
-car starts building boost and as soon as i get to around 5000 rpms it dumps boost from about 18psi to 4ish psi
-car wont build boost, stays at around 6psi through out the rpm's
-car keeps boost until i change gears and then it just wont build boost anymore
-sometimes car runs good keeps boost at around 18psi spike'ing past 20
anybody have any clue because iam oblivious to what the :2up: is wrong with the car. i allready spent a lot of money on it trying to get it fixed. i cant keep spending money on stuff and it end up not doing anything. of course i have no warranty and iam not going to the car dealership for them to fix it and charge me an arm and a leg
car is a 01 tt, 1.8t 225 quattro, if that matters
