  1. I have 3 boost guages including controller, all read approximately the same.
  2. Update. Having replaced turbo link pipes, vac hoses, checked act operation, and tried another vcv valve, car still not boosting properly. This morning I let car warn up before leaving for work initially boost was fine 1.0 bar in boost mode 1, 1.2 bar in boost mode 2. Halfway to work boost dropped to 0.8 in mode 1, and 1.0 in mode 2. Also saw 0.9 and 1.1 ! Any ideas people, was wondering if it could be air tank? Any ideas , help or thoughts appreciated.
  3. Me and chrissie are more than happy to help with bbq and washing/ cleaning etc. Maybe allocate people to organise cars, music, club games, More people seeing our stand and cars would be good. Maybe some of the traders on the forum would like yo come and set up stalls or bring there cars, ibrar did and what a great show peice. name tags are a good idea. will have a think but there our initial thoughts,.
  4. Liked and shared, good to see you back. Price for a inlet nanifold polished tt supra oh y not and throttle body.
  5. Would anybody know of the vsv valves on a vvti are the same as non vvti? And part numbers for valves would be greatly appreciated.
  6. Thanks ric, chris for info.
  7. Hi chris and thanks for help, can you supply the necessary valves and hoses and at what price? The pressure is that under the inlet manifold? And does it need removing to access it? An where abouts is the eg diverter so that I can check this? Is there one particular valve that could be the problem ?
  8. Hi all , my car is a tt vvti facelift tiptronic auto, full bpu earlier this year. On route back from jae car would not boost above 1.0 bar this is the second time it's happened, so its intermittent, I have searched on the forum and although I have found some excellent info I am still trying to diagnose issue. So far I have ordered new turbo link pipes as these had started to collapse internally (dont think this is the problem) I have checked both turbo impellers ( both in fantastic condition) no signs of oil in the pipes, or smoking under load. Checked all vac hoses they are all connected and look fine ( will replace these anyway. Can anyone help further I believe it may be electrical so maybe 1 of the 4 valves (if someone could point me to the most likely) Would appreciate any advise ; maybe chris, lee or paul could give me there thoughts. Gary
  9. I also have same problem, 1997 vvti TT auto tiptronic, was hitting 1.2 bar in mode 2 on my ebc , now only hitting 1.0 bar intermittent. Have new link pipes from whifbitz to fit tomorrow, have also checked condition of impellers on both turbos( no problems there) checked all hoses for cracks ( none found) will replace all as_ matter of course, was_wondering if it may be boost controller solonoid? If any one can help would appreciate. Gary.
