Car seems slower after KO3's fitment

n249 bypass. does it make a difference and is it worth doin??????? does it show up the engine management light?

Yeh its supposed to make the DV response faster, have'nt noticed much myself, but I am not driving as fast as usual because my car isn't so quick on the K03s yet. P.S. How much was your FMIC?

You can swap the box where the wires are plugged in and get rid of the black box on top of your engine bay, move the box above the first coilpack to the mount above the 3rd and it stops the wires hanging all over the place

does it make the dump valve bit louder then. do you know of it will stop the car bein about to realease the boost on its own for engine safety as i cant always keep flat out for long periods, i have to let off then plant it again to get the boost up. will bypassing the valve help that. does that make sense?

its from a&m, previous owner (lee) told me it was 600 as it was the prototype. think they about 800, not sure tho.

Maybe made the DV slightly louder, but yeh what you said, it stops the DV getting opened when in essense it does'nt really need to be.
