N249 bypass - Done
« on: 10 January 2009, 17:39 »
Well first of all like to say a big thankyou to  ( matt ) northeastgti for helping me with my n249 bypass. Car is much better dosent hesitate and boost feels much stringer. Also it looks like stock as  we tucked everything away  Now just need that sports cat and downpipe and that revised map from nick :smiley:
Gone but still keeping a close eye on it...

Yup a big telling off lol/ Haha no man. the advantages are it dosent hesitate under boost. Mine used to cos it was throwing up a n249 fault which would not clear. Now the bypass done it has cleared with vag com. My car felt as tho it was holding back a bit and it dont now woohoo. Lol wait untill matt comes online think he got pics :huh:

It says on that guide if you actually remove the N249 valve by disconnecting a metal line the ECU ' throws a wobbly..'
