It was discovered at that time that the setting of the N75 valve on my H-box car was quite a bit less aggressive than the A/M/T box cars. As in the case of the S4 community tune the APR tune had been built on my car, and other cars would occasionally see boost overshoot on the initial boost ramp up. I recalled a similar occurrence when I had APR’s Stage 3 kit and I was comparing my results to a couple other cars that were equipped with the same kit. This left unresolved the question of why we were seeing different boost profiles when using the same tune. The immediate action was to lower DIMX on their tunes to try and bring the boost curve closer to what I was experiencing. I'm going to copy that setup for sure when I get my Podi setup this summer.During the course of the S4 community tune efforts a couple other cars that tried using the tune I am helping to develop experienced over-boost on the initial ramp up.
#Awe tuning boost gauge kit install
could be good could be badNice ddun! I like the extremely clean install and how you ran through the firewall. could be good could be badĪlso the gauge reflects off of my window tint, so the boost gauge appears like a HUD looking at my side mirror. it dims with the dimmer but the output of the gauge is still brighter in any setting.Īlso the gauge reflects off of my window tint, so the boost gauge appears like a HUD looking at my side mirror. Ill try to get some better night shots but as you can see, the gauge is clearly lighter than the rest of the vehicle. This is just a close up of said hole and can see the boost hose coming out of it There is a drain at the bottom and if you follow the wall down where the red arrow is in the first picture you'll feel the hole, thats how i entered the engine bay instead of cutting up the boot of the wiring harness. It's where the ECU and windhsield reservoir is. theres actually another compartment between the engine bay/firewall. Since I'm a pussy and got a tiptronicĪnd heres the other side of the firewall. Heres how i route it through the firewall, where the clutch would go. Not really a good collection of night shots, ill try to get better shots. I am peaking at 21-22, and holding around 17-19Īlso, i lost the cap that you screw off to gain access to the ecu/washer fluid reservoir, anyone know a part number so i can order another one? This thread is useless without pictures I know, but my someone stole my camera battery.
#Awe tuning boost gauge kit zip
Finally noticed i zip tied the hose flat, it was such a hassle! I was like wtf, took everything apart and reinstalled again, still didn't work.
It collapsed on me and was reading nothing. Also when you're securing the boost hose in the engine bay, don't zip tie it so tight. Before I even touched the car, I had the vent ready and drilled, and all wiring done.
Tip: do all your wiring/extending/crimping beforehand. Connect it to the boost tap and you're done! Once it gets to the other side, there's a drain hole at the bottom, fish it through that. Since I have the triptronic I routed the boost hose through the rubber where the clutch would be. I didn't even touch the ECU/boot or the windshield washer reservoir.
