Default boost machine problem..

i just installed the boost machine.
but the boost goes back and forth from 8PSI to 15PSI. hm.. i want this to be set at 15PSI for 180hp audi tt.
i don't know why it swings back and forth. anybody know what i should do??? it works great when i reduce the boost, but once it hits over the stock boost level which is 10PSI, then it goes back and forth. hm. is there anything that controls the boost except the N75??? please help me

Are you chipped or anything? Or are you just trying to boost 15psi on a stock car?

If you are stock the ECU will restrict the boost from getting too high, r u chipped?

conservative boost map. The BM will tend to keep the boost up bringing the boost over the allowed threshold causing the ECU to bring the boost down. So set the Regulator lower and it will probably work. Do u have a Boost Gauge & Vag-Com?

Default It's a must to test your boost machine >>

U probably have a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) in your ECU, you will need a VAG-COM to clear the code.
This maybe the reason why you are not getting the boost needed.
