lots of stuttering just as boost is starting to really hit...
feels and sounds like maybe a boost leak somewhere. No codes showing up anywhere. Running at high rpm and low boost its ok but step on the gas and it starts stuttering again. I took a quick look at the hoses I could get to but didn't see anything obvious

Good news and bad news, John.
The good news is that you aren't alone: Mine does it too.
The bad news is that I haven't been able to figure out what the damn problem is.
Previously, it was a coilpack on the way out. Now that that's been replaced, I dunno what the deal is.
I think I'm going to check plugs next, but I also get no codes. :screwy:

Swapping in a stock DV is on the list for tomorrow.

If you've got access to a VAG com you can do a quick check to see if the MAF is dying...
I believe looking at block 32 shows you the adaptation numbers (I don't remember which one to log for g/s). Anyway my adaptation is at 0.0% and 0.6% pretty damn close to perfect so it's not the MAF. An itch at the back of my mind is saying cracked turbo housing but hopefully it'll be something obvious when I dig in tomorrow.
