    Definately try resetting the ECU, and then it will probably be in a stock setting at that point, so dont forget to swap to a 93/higher boost program. Also , did you put the DV on backwards by chance?

    PAUL, arent you proud of me, at no point did I say " you should have bought an APR chip!"

    I installed the DV just like the original, plus I have a piston in mine and I don't think reversing it would do anything anyway. I have a GIAC chip so I'm pretty sure I just have one program thats on all the time.

    Is there anyway to reset the ecu without using a vag-com? Can you disconnect the battery or somethin? If I do that I don't think my radio would work cause I bought the car used which would suck cause I don't have the code.
