Hey I'm new to the forums and to TDIs and got a few questions hopefully someone can answer.
First I have VAGCOM and adjusted my IQ value for a little more power and smoke. Well, its suppose to be 32768, but mine was set at 32686. Am I to assume someone turned it down at some point to get better mileage out of it? I adjusted it to 32784, thats the upper limit without hammer mod. Its nice to have a little more power now.. How far is the range of adjustment? Whats the normal range someone could adjust to?
Second, when at WOT on the highway my boost fluctuates. I expect it to spike a little because I have straight pipe from the cat back but, it goes from 10-17psi up and down repeatedly. Is that some thing I will have to live with or do I have a problem. I've replaced the internal vac line in the ecu, and the line that feeds the ecu and also replaced the air box with a air filter on the end of the MAF (solidly supported), and have a N75 on the way(thought it was my limp mode issue, turned out to be internal ecu line).
Last questions for now is, is there any specific recommended place to get a chip and nozzle upgrade?
I've seen a place on egay called inmotion tuning that does cals/nozzles that I've been looking at but, usually ebay isn't the best place to to get a *tune*. I've heard some bad things and some good things about KERMATDI.. Whats a good place? I'm looking for increased power without a huge drop in mileage. I commute to work everyday so mileage is important but it would be nice to be able to pass people at will and not get a running start up the on ramps...
Thanks in advance!!!
