Yeah ive checked it mate, looks fine. Was replaced a few months back under warranty after splitting like yours. Ive checked over and over for leaks but not found a sausage.
All was fine till i had the ko3's and milltek downpipe fitted, which made me think it was a fault with the turbo itself or the actuator is set incorrectly. Im just stuck for ideas now...

im running ko3s boost peaks at bout 19 psi and drops of to about 11 psi at 6 k think im having problems though nt sure yet

 

[Martyn]

A standard k03 will hold 11psi at 6k.

Olly, check the intake temps with vag-com. From your logs on block 114 it looks like the car is defo pulling back, go careful until you've got stage 2 fitted.

kinda the same topic here, would stage 2 apr power the K03s if a 4bar fpr was fitted also? they dont fit a 4bar on the apr maps unless they change the turbo.
would they have to alter the entire map or just change a few settings? or none?

 

[Martyn]

Dave, you'd need to speak to APR/Awesome mate.

 

[David_smith_909]

no probs, cheers anyway

 

[sloppycupra]

so does that suggest that there is something wrong?

 

[Martyn]

That all depends on what mods your car has...

 

[sloppycupra]

car has ko3s, FMIC, jabba remap 3"d/p, d/v etc

thanks

Hi Martyn, i dont think its heat related to be honest as im running a fmic and havent seen temperatures over 40 degrees even after a few back-to-back runs.

Maybe its pulling back due to fueling issues as im still only running 3bar at the moment?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks Ollie.

I did the logs in 3rd gear mate. Yeah tyres are Toyo T1-R 205/40/17. Why do you ask? lol

My peak boost is 17/18 psi on the road, It was originally mapped for 16psi but has increased since fitting 3"dp and FMIC.

Think i need more boost!

What does it hold to 6k Baz?

Ollie, it'll pull back on anything it's not happy with not just temps.

 

[cuprabaz]

Back in 15 mins!!

at Baz. Martyn thats what i mean, im sure its pulling back, but i dont know why. Thats the problem. Im just hoping things will improve after the stage 2 remap on friday.

 

[Martyn]

Ollie, stop worrying until it's got stage 2...if it's still mucking around after some stage 2 tweaking....then it's time to worry....or time to post more logs
