I have recently had my golf mk4 gti tuned a little and im not sure if its running right, the list of mods is in my signature, my problem is my boost will only go to 0.6 bar in 1st gear and is slowly drops... then 2nd same then more and more boost the higher the gears and also had a few little races here and there and im not sure im getting much power... maybe just as fast as type-r.. is that normal should i be much faster than a type-r?

Your spec should eat a type r. My stage 2 ko3s eat type r's alive!
You say ur running ko4? With THS intercooler I take it your running ko4 001?.
If remapped tidy an by a good company you should running 250bhp upwards.
Youl need better fueling too as the standard hardware wont cope with that much power.
Did you have rolling road print outs?
I would be very annoyed with your spec and being as fast as type r's lol
-
i have been told around 250 hp is a good estimate for my setup but i think the tuner has made a f**k up with my map.. yes its a ko4001.
No print-outs.
Anywhere in scotland good for tuning golfs? and i would def get injectors if tuner advised ;)
-
Also after reading a topic on here my car goes into "limp" mode and i have to turn car off and on to get boost....
Does everyones boost hold the same in every gear?
-
star performance are good with vws an audi but a trip to r-tech would be on the cards if it was my car :smiley:
-
Where are R-tech also i would maybe need a few checks etc i will email them and see what they say.

if your injectors are at fault they would but was your car ok after the map an has got worse or has it always been the way it is now :smiley:

Same as when i got it out the garage.. but even that tuner said some bigger injectors would help with power. would kinda need a
-drive down
-tune car
