ok so im def. getting a giac chip for my A4 1.8T but i was wondering if i could just get a 4 bar FPR and a manual boost controller and boost up a little bit until i get my chip. I know the chip is ideal but my friend had a 20th aniversary gti 1.8T and he had a 4 bar with a manual boost controller and he was fine. He at one point brought it up to 28psi !!! thats way to much for me but would 15psi or so be good?

thanks for the help

son of a. no please dont do that

 

Just put the $ you would of spent on that and put it towards the chip.

 

Don't use manual boost controllers, that kid bzhas or whatever is a god damn retard and will ultimatly regret his decision... *Sigh*

 

i blew my tubro using a mbc...do you want to???

 

omg, only 9 min. and you guys already convinced me not too. This is the replies i like, good thing i didnt get flamed, thanx guys for the help, going with the giac chip and i think i will be happy with it soo thanx

yes you will be happy with the chipp. enjoy be safe happy tuning

 

i put a mbc on my ride and just increased it 2psi and it's been working great, no wastegate creep and spools a lot faster. but i was going into limp mode at 14 and 15psi. alsomy 01 a4 came stock with a 4bar fpr, so yours might too.but overall if you got the money chip it or for a cheaper option go with "split second boost control system" it's about $250 taps into your wiring harness and gives you a bar of boost with fuel and timing to boot.
