UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

When am driving ma car and taking it to the redline all through the gears it seems to have bad turbo lag when changing gear

It seems to be boosting all the way to the red line then I change gear it loses all power for a sec or two then starts boosting again but u can really feel die between this and ave never noticed it before until i got stage two

edit: Still running stanard DV!

its getting too hot you dont have an intercooler and the standard dv wont be helping also why do you take it to the red line ?? there is not power there??

THE STANDARD RECIRC VALVE WILL BE STRUGGLING TO CLOSE AND STAY CLOSED WITH THE EXTRA ITS BEING ASKED TO DO BY THE ECU AND YOUR CARS GONNA BE GETTING REALLY HOT

EXACTLY AS WHITE POLO SAYS, WHAT YOUR SUFFERING FROM IS LOSS OF POWER THROUGH HEAT SOAK AND MAL BOOST CORRECTION VIA THE VALVE

A dont red line it a lot, was just really trying out the map for the first time as ave got my 16" wheels back on

Hopefully the DV will come begining of the week and it will sort it out, apart from that ave really not got the funds to get an FMIC the now so am kinda screwed that way

i feel the same , i need a front mount should hopefully have it after xmas !

the front mount is really a part required to keep the car running efficiently well and cool whilst on stage 2 as most people request, so not having it and having stage 2 is going to have some issues im affraid mate

Need to look into gettin one after xmas too! Just so expensive

its no more expensive than a good set of alloys mate, think of it that way, its a stealthy mod as its not massively visible like wheels, but god it works soooooooooo well

imagine intake temps being 40+ degrees cooler, it restores so much lost power it feels like a 3rd remap

Wont be till next yr till a get one
