Actually, you don't want to drive her - Look what's happened to her victims - Mat is the latest. She's a serial manipulator and temptress.

there is no hope for me now 

I had it for 4 days as a daily drive and did about 800 miles in it    My Ed30 sounds just like her now after the uprated engine mounts.

Your all making me really want a go in the 'temptress', problem is I don't have a MKV to buy anything for at VWR

Aparently the GTi fordm't show turbo boost.  Check out the link below and read the notes at the bottom. I think its number 2.

off thread but a few chaps have been having issues with their sciroccos and this kit, this may be of interest

On mine it either says 0.00 or off.

It should give you a boost readout from the Turbo system whether Diesel or Petrol. Does anyone have a boost readout working with the Fiscon kit?

Yes it does give readouts after a day of being stuck at 0. I realized that the down arrow button on the right side of the wheel steps through four different values for boost, and it is now showing a value. Also the up arrow toggles between remaining fuel in liters and battery output voltage, not sure how useful it is to know that the battery outputs 14.7 volts but fun all the same!
No extra connection is needed. The bluetooth unit is connected to the CAN bus and presumably just pulls the information from the engine management, this extra information display is just a nice extra from the phone kit.

Hi Wigit,

I have driven approx. 40 miles... still no readout on the turbo boost.   How long do you rekon I have to wait?

Cheers

I think it was Greenouse that got in the way of the shot of the car hurtling down the strip on the 2nd video
