Thanks mate, I will change it for my peace of mind so I know it's right, I will take it from there. Will report back with any news. Thanks

I'll get you some logs Bill. I will send you them through Facebook, I won't be like last time I promise I was a pain last time coming to think of it, lol. (A mans just desperate :( lol) Actuator cracks off at 5psi that is all I can pretty much say about how my actuator works. I want to change my...

Spec is std apart from decat and panel filter, Turbo is std from polo gti BJX engine ko3/82 which I believe is the same as an aum ko3s, is this right? All I have is std map, but std boost pressure is lower than mapped boost pressure so it may lead me down the wrong path. Getting another mapped...

Hmmm what to do. How can I prove this Bill? If I put original file in and get no boost cut will this be enough evidence to almost guarantee its the map? Any suggestions to try prove its the map would be much appreciated as it would cost me around £500 to come to you and I can't justify spending...

Replaced all vac pipes under inlet manifold all clips fitted etc, no leaks anywhere on the car boost pipes or vac pipes. Sometimes hits limp mode and when it does this, its 5 psi max boost, am I right in thinking unplugging n75 is same as limp mode? I get SAI incorrect flow fault code I'm...

I will get some logs then and let you know, just want to add the power delivery from full boost doesn't come until around 3,500-4000rpm. Thats like td05 lag lol from evo lol.

Thanks, so as I described the actuator being difficult to move due to the rod having to be forced over to slot into the WG arm, this could cause the problem?

Also replaced front lambda, throttle body, n75, maf, gave it a full service checked timing

Sorry, it has de-cat I have replaced turbo and fitted a ko3s/82 I believe? from the polo gti bjx engine. Is this not the same turbo? stage 2 map (not custom) no other mods apart from a panel filter.

First off I have no logs as of yet, these will come in the next few days, all I have is a description of whats happening. On full throttle the boost builds up to 19-21psi and just after this the throttle body closes, opens, closes, opens, closes, opens and so on until red line, does this in...

I understand that running lean WILL melt a piston(s) so logging I will do, what am I looking out for in terms of figures? Rather than post logs unless you don't mind? Badger is a long way, but judging from the feedback he's my favourite of the lot, so will be using him so will need to get the...

And when you say keep an eye on fuelling how would I do that without taking vagcom with me everywhere I go lol

Right roger that my friend, I'll have a custom map after all. In terms of the rods, what bhp can they handle? Would you recommend fitting an AGU bottom end if my rods do decide to play silly buggers

Tuffty, I think you mis understood what I mean about paying for a map, I mean its not that I don't want to pay and its not that its too expensive, its just that I can't part with the cash the minute I install parts, I would prefer to have it done properly, how ever I'm just doing a bit of home...

Yeah have the maf and injectors. only thing holding me back is the map side. If I put a generic map on for ko4, will my engine be safe? As custom maps do not come cheap, not that I'm saying they're too expensive and I don't want to pay, just can't part with the cash straight away after fitting...
