agu boost issues

[jamie16v]

Am i the only one that thinks this sounds about right for a stage1 K03?

peak at 16psi and drop to about 13-14 psi.

Shouldn't it peak at 21/22 and drop to 16/17 

thats more like stage 2 k03s territory

i might expect a spike of 18 but k03 turbos are old and tired now, held boost seems about right.

must get me a k03s then...

spec1 Ko3 mapping should be around 18psi peak and held around 14-15psi with ve tail as the rpm raise.  As Topher said old and weak, I thin he was talking about the turbo and not me?  lol   A week actuator is going to be the issue here me thinks, but the good news is that we have a unique k03 & ko3s actuator spring upgrade kit comming out soon which will fit to you current oem unit, so no need to splash out loads of money and remove the turbo.   For the mean time you can try to add a little more pre load on the actuator by adjusting the nuts on the rod.

Nick when will these spring kits be ready?

Mailed you the other day and taken your advise and getting pcv replaced along with temp sensor.Having smoke test done aswell so hopfully trace problem if its a split hose.
