    MAF questions and numbers:

    Had my custom stage 2 tune, MAF never read over 190g's sooooometimes getting up to about 198....this is a fully custom "stage 2" on a BAM 225 so stock reading is around 190. Always wondered why these numbers were so low. Albeit the tuner should have spotted this.... :S I was running the MAF...

    Boost gauge install, idea?

    Hi guys, Did the PCV delete years back, bare with me, now looking at installing a boost gauge. The nipple under the inlet manifold....the one that's blocked off after a PCV install, would this be a good place to tap in the boost gauge? Or does it need to be T-pieced into a line? I feel like...

    Custom tune, strange cutting out

    So, This is a hard one to nut out, love/hate my custom "stage 2" that some days seems to be a real stage 2, other days, feels stock.... I've recently been doing lots of fwy driving. At high speed its zippy as anything, it'll just go all the way to 200 no problem. Turbo is super responsive...

    S3 BAM o2/lambda sensor part numbers!

    Hi gang, thinking about swapping out my o2 sensors for some fresh ones. There seems to be a lot of different o2 sensors for these cars! And quite a bit of confusion as to what goes with what! BAM engines have a 5 pin pre, 4 pin post? The pre is the larger oval black and the post is the...

    s3 8L stage 2 logs, seems perfect but no power to the wheels?

    Hi guys, Took these logs a few days ago cause my stage 2 isn't feeling very stage 2. The induction and dump sounds are extremely low, almost inaudible so naturally thought my turbo was just not creating any boost, however these logs seem to say otherwise. Thoughts? Everything actually looks...

    Fault codes after "stage 2" custom tune.

    This is everything that came up (obviously unimportant stuff like alarm, brake light etc doesn't matter) My tuner has received this as well. Its definitely lost all its grunt and "stage 2"ness :P Idle can be extremely rough on some startups. Turbo makes noise but not power is being delivered...

    Custom stage 2 and forge spring choice

    This has been done to death but I thought this may be a definitive a "stay away from" the yellow spring post. So, interesting, I switched out my 008 spring from green to yellow, running 23psi @ stage2 and the yellow completely destroyed my boost. On green it was ballistic, kicking in around...
