Hello Everyone, so i been busy and away for a while, fixed the Knock sensor, car boosts normal now.

i have a slight issue maybe?? normaly when car is at idle, and you rev it or tap on the gas pedal, the boost needle goes up to the "0", right? now.. for a few days it almost reaches the 0 but not quiet. What you all think it may be? i checked all the vacuum lines, i tightened a few things here and there... last week i pulled off my twin k&n filters ( stock box) and the entire unit and cleaned it all. and replaced everything. Im not sure if it happened after this or maybe i just dont recall. but if you guys know of similar issues please chime in. :)


k now for the suspension part: i recently replaced the rear diff. bushings with energy susp. , and bought rear sway bar bushing kit and link kit. going to be doing this soon.

i would like to replace the shocks all around but WOW they sure are expensive on the TT's, so im thinking of going KYB AGX or tokico illumina's and lower it about and inch and also maybe use spacers 15mm rr and 10 fr. what you guys think? daily driver, 19's i want comfort and a nice lowered look. Im used to H&R and Eibach . thanks :)


near future upgrade. my own build exhaust system , dp's and tp's. intake and chip, i will rebuild the turbo's before any of the upgrades. i want to focus on suspension for now, strut bars fr and rr and etc. Oh BTW, what would i need adjustable tension rods for? i want to use energy suspension bushings all around. My steering wiggles a bit also over 55mph... sorry for all the heavy loeaded questions, but would appreciate all you inputs. cheers . :biggrin:

No issue here. Your engine is making vacuum. Atomspheric pressure, temperature, and humidity all play a factor. Don't look that hard into it. Not to mention the stock boost gauge is inaccurate as fack.

Get in on the next group buy for Powertrix. You'll hate yourself if you don't. Trust me. A hundred bucks more than a KYB/Eibach setup and fully adjustable.

For when you lower your car. i want to use energy suspension bushings all around.

Great !!!! Thanks. My boost went down to 5-6psi. No lights. Nothing is on. New knock sensor too. Strange. I dono ...need to look further into it all. And I will look into powertrix. Heard a lot about it. But is it good for everyday ride?
