Put the 4bar in
Put the 4 bar in and cleaned my MAF thoroughly, still throwing a code for a misfire but everything else including the lean condition is gone now
I've got the best idle now out of the car since I've had it, it always had a slightly broken idle, not it just purrs and goes.
I'm going to do the throttle body alignment thing tonight with the Vag-Com and then go ahead and get 2 coil packs, and hopefully she'll be ready for her chipping session in Early May. I'll get some 90-110 runs on my vid before and after turning up the boost too. I'll be installing the diode to 11 and 17 but of course only using the 11 for now. I'll run it up to 17 psi and do the before and after on that setup first, should be a few days as the diodes are priority and shipped a few days ago. Talking with TTStuff about the damn order that's been pending since 17 Feb, damn PO boxes
Anyway, sorry for the rant but today was the first time she felt like she had alot more she wanted to go.
She needs more boost, BAD, I did however notice the misfires from 5500 up in 4th, the Autobahn was busy and the flow of traffice was only about 105 so I didn't get to run her out in 5th today, I'm headed to a local German junkyard tomorrow and I'll run her out and bounce her off the limiter tomorrow for sure
It's about a 40 mile drive with 30 of it being straight Autobahn

Replacement coilpacks, they are a common problem and cause 90% of the check engine light's I've seen. Everything on mine is cleared up except for the packs now
Bought to head out on that trip

Your one of the few, for stock I run the non platinum BRK6E's with a .32 gap, when I chip I'm going to run the non platinum BRK7E's at .28 due to being one heat range cooler. Alot of people pay 12 bucks a plug for the platinum or iridium, i just run the Copper plugs and change them every 10-15,000 miles for about 6 bucks for all of them
I'm trying to resize a vid of my trip today, drove almost 2 miles straight on the rev limiter, well, on the govenor which is 130 on the 180's. It was a fun trip but the yard didn't have crap
