Gti turbo ARZ engine, how to do n249 bypass, is it a safe mod?

[Jeffvwgolf]

Thinking bout doing the n249 bypass, I haven't enough knowledge on how it's done as I've been reserching for ages now. Can any1 give me a detailed intrustion on how to do it, my car is 2000, engine code ARZ and is it a safe mod to do..

I followed that same guide and its pretty straight forward and worth doing... but then I ended up doing the ultimate delete to get rid of even more junk and its fine!!! (I got an ARZ too!!)

I also did the deletes, no issues whatsoever, I actually think it made the car feel better, maybe a placebo as you're more than likely just removing old broken crap anyway

I have mixed views since I did the N249 bypass. Yeah, in gerneral, the car the feels better and a bit more responsive, specially in second gear. However, when giving it a roast from 3rd to 5th, the turbo sometimes likes to stall then pick up again.

Thinking I might be need a new DV, even though the standard one sounds and looks good this now.

I done the bypass and so far I haven't had any regrets, I can hear the turbo whistle more and it also boosts abut more with less lag and smooth threw the revs

Does the agu have this? Also what else can you delete from the agu apart from the carbon canister?
