Yup, I am turboless. PSI is at about 3. No spooling at all.
All i can say is SLOW!!!!! I'm getting passed by old ladies with walkers.
As to why... I don't know. Larry and I took apart the DV last night to make sure it was working ok. We lubed it up more and put it back in. Blown turbo???? Stuck wastgate??? Bad chip???

Ya know, being an owner of a 2k TT I have had my share of "bug's"
But I really would have expected the car to be spot on perfect for the owners of newer models....This is really disheatening to hear...Maybe I have just been lucky to have racked up 50000 miles with very little in the way of mechanical problems....Although I really don't need the excuse of a blown turbo to go for stage 3.
Truly sorry Mike,
I hope this is corrected quickly for you with the minimum of hassle.

All the ones I can see....
This has been a problem for the past two weeks but not this drastic. 20psi boost then 12psi, then back. So that makes me think not hosse or leak. Because if I had a leak why would I have 20psi sometimes?
And no, can't hear turbo at all.
What do you think my symptoms would be if the wastegate was stuck open?
