Another thing I noticed is wrong since yesterday

Just as a refresher as to what is wrong, I installed a forge 007dv and modshack SII yesterday. After doing so, my boost wouldn't go above 15 lbs and when it was at 15 it would ride real rough and struggling. Today I was driving and I noticed that the struggling let up a little, not much, but now there is very slight amount of black smoke will come out when I'm running at 15lbs for any amount of time over like 2 seconds. Any suggestions? Robert is going to VAG it for me this weekend. TIA

Someone put an old rotten egg in your gas tank, man. I'm sure of it.

Just kidding. I have no idea. The VAG COM will tell you what you need to know.

Justin, we might want to put everything back to stock (**** and FPR)...>>

when we look it this weekend. Sounds like you are dumping too much gas. I remember when we were testing the **** and the MAF was going, the partial was more on the rich side.

The Vag will tell the tale.
