i have a 007 DV, its a little beat up, think i may have put to much grease in it, or its just all worn, i tried changing the springs but it made everything worse, seems to misfire now when im a WOT everything is fine till it gets to about 19-21 psi then it feels like a back-fire.. should I just put the other spring back in or should I buy a new DV, and which one should I go with? keep in mind its a big turbo so i dont know what would be best.. thanks

 

If a spring change made it worse then atleast you know it's partly the DV. Maybe borrow someone elses DV, any friends close by?

 

plenty of friends, no one with a audi.. yea it was fine for like 30 minutes then it started acting up it would hold 21psi and now the boost jumps all over the place and the car makes a poping noise like a misfire. so I just asume its the DV because i didnt change anything else, i was only holding 18 before and it was fine.

what DV should I buy? i had an evo dv in my last car but it was not tunable, dont really know if its worth it, alot of people run the baileys

 

baileys and forge are the best

 

well my forge is beat but i do have the spring kit for it so maybe ill just buy a new one

 

I found these articles on the net: http://www.s4biturbo.com/art-dvtests.php & http://www.s4biturbo.com/art-dvtests2.php The Bosch ones might be more reliable.

 

bosch are used on TT's now, if he has a big turbo hell need something a little stronger, plus i don't think they are tunable.

 

Johnny is running a GT28RS i believe, correct me if i'm wrong.

 

Make sure you have the right color spring, I have a spring set for a forge 007. PM if you want one.
