Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

    Boost pressure

    in a recent daily blast in my MY18 GTI original, with the performance screen on the media system I observed boost pressures up ward of 28 psi, my understanding is Max boost was around 18psi, Questions is the performance monitor fibbing a little, is this transient boost to raise and maintain specific output across a wider bandwidth, or do I have a fault and should I be going back to the dealer to fix it. it has about 3k on the clock and no codes or issues
    your thoughts
