The car friggin' screams.
It pulls so hard in 4th gear. I'm changing out my 4.11 gears for some 3.42's so that should help out with getting full boost sooner in the lower gears.I want get the long term/short term fuel trims set and then start going up to 7 psi while adding timing slowly until I see knock then backing it off some.
I'm just now getting into the game, it's so much fun!

It made 421 rwhp N/A and it feels much stronger after the TT install.
Have you started your install yet?
~Joshua Let us know how it does. If you could post up a couple vids of it on the road. I saw the startup one you had, sounds real good.
Have not started on mine yet. Gathering up some gauges and misc stuff.

I tee'd off the intake manifold. where the fuel vapor canister hose normally runs. (driver's die behind the throttle body.)
I finally got it on the road last night! Vidoes will follow this weekend after it's tuned up correctly.

my a4 car never had BOV installed. With approx. 60k on my center sections, Blouch turbo said they were in excellent condition. Of course we are talking apples/oranges a4/m6.

Really just log it and see if your AFR goes wacky bad during shifts. I hadn't thought about the internal wastegate factor, but would like to see what you think, and what the computer thinks.
Great job Joshua. I was a fan before the car was FI. Shiny and fast...you can have it all!

this talks little bit about the function of a BOV.

Looks like an awsome set up. I cant wait to see the vids and numbers
I myself would never run a turbo car with out a BOV/s. When in full boost and the throtle plate slams shut (durng a shift,or let off) the boosted air has to have somewhere to go,it exits into the turbo and stresses shaft. shaft is spinning at somethin like 40,000rmps and all the sudden is stopped u can imagen what kinda ware it will put on it. The more boost the harder it is on the turbos.
if only running 5psi of boost, the turbos may last years with no bov, but higher boost levels will shorten the life of the turbos.... just somethin to think about
