I have a stock 2001 audi tt 225. I want to know what i need to be able to turn up the boost on the stock turbo. I also want to know how I do it....Please Explain...I was told by a freind briefly it involved stuff in the wastegate...anyways...

 

read ...[&:]

its a forum use it the fact link at the top is a good place to start

 

It's the **** next to the seat heater heater controls, clockwise for more boost (up to 30psi) and counterclockwise to go back to stock levels. Hope that helps, don't get a ticket!

To increase boost you have two options, chip or diode. Chip is ~$500 and diode is $0.25 plus other things you should have, boost gauge and mbc.

 

Sorry to jack the thread......

Hey cincy....I have a Halmans MBC, whats your take on these? They are well known in the DSM world. I have yet to see any "audi/vw" guys talk about them however. I have one sitting in my garage for the last couple years and thinking about installing it this week afterI get the car back from the shop.

 

its a ball and spring mbc. It will react fast (even with the steel ball), so you may like it, you may not. People are usually torn with b&s mbc's. But as for halman, its a good repitable brand. Better than most people in the 1.8t world seem to use

fine

 

alright it's back...LOL.

Thanks for the quick reply. I took it down because I wasn't even sure if you have heard of one or not....but you obviously have, thanks for the input man!

 

Im a mbc and bov/dv nut. Dont know why.

 

You can purchase a boost controller. My choice would be an Apexi, if u like electronics and the indiglo look then you will love this brand. They run around $400
