Guest gti33702 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 you can't use a mbc on vw 1.8ts you have to get chipped 1st or don't turn the boost up past 14.7 psi. with a chip you can run 21psi. hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-NUGGET Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Yeah I am on stock boost but when i hook it up the car goes into limp mode and wont let me go over 5 psi and the car would spike to 14.7 because that is the limit it holds and then consitantly back off hence it going into limp mode. The ecu's way of not killing my car. so i guess i am going to just have to chip it than. I have tried and been told i can do it but i dont belive it. Thanks for your input.
