Default ::Boost Machine Installed (Review) and Random Pics::

I just got done testing the boost machine. I installed it today and it was mad easy. It took 5 mins in total. Right now I'm boosting at 20 from 16 with my pc-16 in cold weather.

The boost response is much quicker and its boosting quicker too after playing around with the wastgate ****.

I just connected one hose to the original that comes from the turbo and the other line to the n75 valve.

Whoever is debating on getting one I can guarantee you its worth it. Much better than just a regular boost controller and wastegate feature is very nice. I don't understand why more A4 people are not running it and its more popular in the TT Scene.

Pics of the install:





My ghetto heatshield:



Some random pics of my car. Exuse my car being dirty because I was working on it and it was running rich for a while. Now everything is fixed and its going for a nice car wash tomorrow:









I'm doing a good photoshot this weekend cuz I discovered some nice spots downtown Jersey City.

LOL basically is like a boost controller but it also lets you controll the boost onset which means how much boost to let the wastgate to start close by leading to faster spool up and better boost response.

It's common in the TT Scence but not in the A4 yet.

Surprisingly enough my ghetto headshield keeps that part of the intake real cool compared to just the regular heatshield that's why I'm not worried about that.

So is this the one they sell for the TT or do they make one specifically for the A4?

Do you need to reduce the tubing size at the wastegate and N75 hose fittings?

nope u don't need to reduce nothing. basically hook it up parallel to the n75 valve. this is the one for the TT but also works with the A4.
