RE: help please! so lost!
ok. it is a little. like its just a little bit of a wet coat around the hose. the car doesn't eat oil at all. i just wish i would boost like it does the first tiem threw first and second on take off all the time. i need to know what the hell to look for. vaccum leak. i'll check the dv. but it also did it with my stock dv on too. has anyone else ever run into anything like this?

Sounds similar to a 240sx we had, but I think the boost switch was incorrectly installed and it boosted up to about 24psi & then it wouldn't boost anymore that 12 & then ........ well it just didn't boost, cos it stopped running. :-)

-what do you think of the apexi exhaust?
-should i do a 4bar fpr?
-what are good injectors for this car?
-how can i put an intake on the car?
-for a boost gauge do i just "t" into the vaccum line coming off the divertor valve?
-how long do these cars normally last?
-do all audi's have that raspy noise to the engines at idle? my boss has a carrera and it sounds identical?

2. haven't heard of it, borla and lltek are house fav's however
3. skip the 4bar and do a 5 bar, you'll need it for the ko4
4. the audi tt 225 injectors are good
5. forget the intake, they don't really mesh well w/ our cars (too much heatsoak from the turbo)
6. yes
7. you should have no problem hitting 150k, i've seen people getting up into the 250k range
8. is your boss's carrera a turbo? just try not to think of it as raspy, think of it as elegant power.
