boost

What is it with planning a RR day and things going wrong with the car? My problem this time is when accelerating, at around 4.5-5000 rpm and on full boost, the car sort of bogs down and starts stuttering like its on the limiter. A few months back a suspect MAF was causing probs but after...

hopefully someone might be able shed some light on my problem:help: driving last night and the car started boosting stange. It started to boost then would drop off then come back on then drop off all the way through the rev range. you can see the boost gauge moving up and down and also...

can anyone tell me where the elbow in forges 5 piece silicone boost hose kit goes? I've sussed out the other 4 and just unsure of the 90 deg elbow's location. (is it under the bonnet or inside the wing with the IC piping?) cheers guys for any help.

I know that this kind thread is posted almost everyday, sorry!! It feels like my LC 20VT is having issues with boost. Concidently it coincides with the colder weather. I used to put my foot down in second and there would be alot of pull however over the last few days it feels a little flat...

go a little problem with my boost at the moment. it boosts up to 1.5 bar then with my foot still planted slowly creeps down is this normal? i have vagcom and it shows nothing?

hello all. a little help is needed. i fitted a neuspeed indution kit to my lcr. all was fine for a few days. after a short run my turbo would not boost past 0.3 bar. also every thing was very very hot under the bonnet. if i turned of the engine and turned it back on, all was fine for 2 mins, and...

hey guys im kinda new to owning a cupra. my car is currently running 1.4 boost on all the below things. im worryed that its a massive amount of pressure and dont want to rec my turbo or bottom end? any advice would be cool. i was thinking adjustable boost and regulator. cheers

Got a bit of a strange one, my Cupra is boosting a bit oddly on part throttle. If I accelerate using part throttle, the boost goes up to 1.5bar, then back to 0.5 and up/down/up/down then settles for part throuttle driving. It's annoying as the car surges and slows as this happens. On WOT the car...

i have problem?? i noticed when i took my car out for a test after i put in my boost gauge that i boost a healthy 0.7 0.75 at first for a while and when i was on my way home the boost dropped to 0.5?? i have a lc with induction and n249 bypass, can anyone give me some ideas to what it might be...

hey, i have a day off work today and want to make the most of it so i am running my gauges in. the only problem i have is finding a hole to take them through into the engine compartment?? does anyone no where the hole is or if i can take it through where the loom goes through ( cantsee no space...

Hi there peeps, just wondering if i can t off from the n249 bypass i have done to my lc and connect my boost gauge on to this system?? will it work...... cheers

Hi Guys Where abouts is the best and easiest place to connect my boost gauge hose to? Does any one have any pics of the location they have used as not overly mechanically mind !! Cheers Duncan

My Autometer boost gauge (Phantom 5703) is not reading 0 when engine off (-4/-5). Can it be serviced? / Reset. I thought it was only suppose to be a "vacuum" when the engine is idling. The reason I ask is I’m sure my readings on my gauge seem lower all of a sudden ~ no loss in power , vag...

Im running a ko3s with a stage 2 remap. Ive started to get boost problems, if i put my foot down she will wind upto 10-12 psi before shuddering, its as if the turbo is coughing. It only does this after 10 psi, what could this be? ive been to 4 different garages now and they dont have a...

Evening all, Not long had my cupra and im very new to the seat scene. My question is what is the stock boost on these cars and what pressure are the internals/engine good for without loosing reliability and efficiency? Thanks in advance Rob

i know that there is alot of other thread on this but would like some help with it. i reacently got my LCR remaped but just recently it has developed a bit of a stutted when accelerating.when you put the power down it goes fine until about 10psi then has a little stutter but then goes again...

Hi Guy's, Got round to fitting my boost and oil temp gauges today, fitted the halfords ones. My boost is peaking at 22psi and settling between 17 and 18psi. Obviously modified to my signature but is it anygood?
