Hi Guys,

Its a bit quiet in here so i've got a few things i'd like to know.

1. Check this link out:

http://www.peterbeers.net/vw_roadtrip/GTI/GTI_Mods/Overkill_Ground/overkill_ground.htm

What do you guys think?

2. What does it mean 'driving off boost'? Is it simply driving at a certain rpm or just not fanging your car??

3. How do you apply LSD on a gti? Has anyone done it and what have they gained??

4. I have an oettinger chip and i dont intend to compare chips but my boost guage says when im in say 3rd that its at about 18psi but if i go to say 4th or 5th it goes upto 20 and sometimes 25! Thats impossible perhaps my guage is not connected to where is should be??? On this, i got my gauge installed before i chipped the car and on average itd be at about 9-10 psi, does this have to do with the air fuel ratio??? perhaps my car is running to rich.

I plan to have this all tested on the dyno after i get my dump pipe done, but let me know what you guys think??

the grounding thing isnt really necessary, but some say so .. some say not. its something you can do if you get bored i'd say. i have one of those kits laying around which hasnt been fitted for over a year now lol.

remember with american cars they have different engine codes then us, drive by wire differences, k03 sport turbo's used on the ae/337s as well and others..

so there is a lot of differences from american to ours, so dont expect the same result from ours!

LSD your looking at about $900US.

XXX1.8t would be the one to talk about LSD fitment to his a3 turbo..
