DJ, keep in mind S3 will give you more & more power as it tunes itself. Right out of the box it starts mello, then adds timing as it feels comfortable. Just stay out of knock. It classifies knock 2 ways. Short term & long term. Short term it just pulls timing till it sees no knock for a little bit. Long term it will basicaly go back to original timing or worse & will wait a long time to watch your good behavior before it gives your timing back.
As far as boost goes, give it a chance to get to 20-21psi. THat has been pretty normal. Also remember S3 is not looking for a boost level, the ECU is looking for a calculated power level. If you can hit that power level at 19psi, then it is only going to give you 19psi. THe bottom line is you need to give it some time to see what the ECU is going to do. before you should start monkying with it. Most guys that have turned up the WGA on S3 get lowered back down by the ECU. It will literally vent more boost on its own to get the PSI back down. Give it time.
Who's playing with it?
I only had 8psi, less than stock, less than before and the lowest EVER even with leaks when I first got the car.
That was DAB0,1,2 or 3
All I did was pull the arm out 4mm and took up the threads on the adjustment
Now I have 18-19psi, 10-12psi DAB1-2 and I think 8-9 in DAB0 but I haven't had it back in 0 since I have been home.
I haven't really given it the BEANS yet, just a flash of WOT from 1st to 3rd before I had to jump all over the brakes... DAB 2 less than 1/8th of a mile slightly downhill - 92mph
