Default Odd boost behavior after turbo replacement - not my car - but, a friend (WindyCityS4) just picked...
his car after turbo replacement and asked that I post for him since he is not able to access the internet at the moment....

Anyway, he has a 2002 tipronic - picked it up today after turbo replacement. He runs an MTM chip which usually runs ~15-16psi and tapers to ~12 or lower at redline. He's now seeing spikes to 20psi. When he floors it, it spikes to 20 settles down to 14 then up to 15 then tapers as usual.

Any ideas for him? He'll be checking in later.

Thanks in advance.
