Halvie how much boost do you run?

21psi for 490whp

21psi for 490whp

bumped it up a bit. now around 29psi for 675whp.

Don't have a real answer actually. Haven't bothered to put in the analog sensor for my p3 gauge. Gauge says 18.5ish. Vagcom does hit 2550. What does that equate to again?

Lol send your car east and stay north

i don't think the new apr kits are advertised to hit 400 to the wheels. maybe with fueling.

Also, is this bad?

still not sure why calculated from vagcom says 22 but my gauge tops out at 19. i thought they pulled data from the same thing, unless the p3 atmospheric pressure correction is calculated differently.

At least you found it

no kidding man. now i'm in andre's position. not sure if i need to pull the manifold to see if i find anything jammed in there or what. i'm assuming this happened from driving around with the pipe blown off. could have picked up anything i suppose.

Thanks for the note. If I can be ballpark ill be happy. I am not the only one getting this setup the others to my knowledge will be setup with internals and fueling, so i will have some comparison points. And if I don't make 400 and become unhappy with the performance I will just get a bigger turbo :thumbsup: gotta start somewhere.

Direct port meth with a bunch of boost and timing you'd probably be around there. You'd need to buy a failsafe though.
