Anyone had any problems with acceleration over 100mph
« on: January 27, 2015, 06:35:37 pm »
Hi all I've been trying to find out what's up with my golf recently when I give it all when it comes to 100mph it struggles all the way too 130 mph then that's it ? :(
I know the golf has a speed limiter on it to 155mph as standard
I got Revo stage 1 with gfb dv+
Milltek cat back
And Revo intake
Revo said to me I may have cracked turbo housing anyone had this before ?

Sounds like some sort of boost leak. It should pull hard At that point

Check you intake pipes from the intercooler and also the GFB DV+, as these have been reported to leak boost.

Should I go for dionoistics and smoke test and rolling road ? Maybe buy a boost gauge to see a significant loss of boost might be the hpfp perhaps it's weird because it pulls up to 100mph then after that it doesn't seem lively at all :(

Red Robin on here cracked his turbo, seen a few others go too. Only seems to be K03 turbos cracking.

VCDS logging would show requested boost vs actual. Maybe a local forum member could help you out? See the VCDS register
