Hi all,
I'm getting all the bits together to fit a Golf Mk6 Gti IHI K03 to my 1.8T 20V in a Polo 9N3. To do so there are a few little things I need to do to the turbo itself to get it ready to go in. eg blank off the electric DV, fit a turbo muffler delete and because I'll be running a custom tune i'll be uprating the wastegate actuator.
I was surprised to see that the actuator spring seems to be only 5psi which is really light. So I was wondering for the guys that are running say stage 2 tunes on their GTi's, what kind of peak boost you are at and what does the boost curve look like as you move towards redline - holding steady'ish or dive bombing to half its peak? Also if anyone has gone past staged tunes and has fitted stiffer wastegate springs I'd really like to hear what you've experimented with.
thanks for any insights
