Sounds like you are like me and should have stuck with an automatic.

You really have a smokin' hot lookin' new edge GT there...Love it!! I guess there is nothing much to say that others have all ready covered..With your power #'s, you should have pounded that lead sled into submission from a roll .

So i haven't put my boost guage in yet. And was wondering about the diverter valve, so i took a diverter valve off of my buddies 2001 audi a4 1.8t and put it on my car (he has the dv from a TT). Took it for a spin and the damn thing woke right up! It was like a new car. So i will get a new dv and install the boost guage tomorrow.

Glad you got it figured out. Nothing is worse than a car that is supposed to be quick, not being quick. Always seems to be the smallest things too, at least it always has been in my case.

I was just kidding earlier, guess I should have threw a out beside it.

Good luck.

98LS1, I figured you were kidding, it was a good post. Who would not think that i am the worlds worst straight line driver with those times. I sure would.
So...Autozone doesn't have the Bosch 0 280 142 114 diverter valve or the 001 that vortech sells. So i have to go to audi and get it. Or order it off line for $50 and not from vortech cuz they charge $74. I am installing the boost guage in a minute and can't wait to see the psi at full boost.
