<center><img src="http://tinypic.com/5whas"></center><p>New Forge 007 BPV and changed the 2 thin lines on top plus the one going to the BPV and stiil no boost.I loose boost @ 3000 RPM.When I was replacing the vacuum lines this is what I found on the left side of the Throtle Body-Intake -Underneath.There is an L shapped ruber hose attached to a nipple, there is nothing atached to it. Here is the picture.

No I didn't, becouse I don't have one and in the city I live in I don't know nobody that has one.
There is only one Audi dealer that is booking 10 days down the road.
I just installed a new Forge 007 BPV becouse my old OEM one had the vacuum niple broken.
DOo you know why I had way better boost with the broken BPV ??
The reason I changed it is becouse it was surging at lower RPM without any vacuum to it.

you're flying blind without a vag-com. i guess you should check for intake tract leaks.
