Wez Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Nope, my aem cant take the new software or something like that. Sounds like they were maybe doing a firmware update. Just a quick note, with the later firmware versions the ECU switches the serial out to telemetry datastream within about 3 to 5 seconds, this is for the serial datastream gauge and can be turned off if you dont have one, its also recommended that it is disabled during mapping as it can be a real pita having to connect so quick from ignition on. Once the ECU goes into telemettry datastream you cannot connect with AEM Pro to map until the ECU is reset/power cycled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted September 1, 2007 Author Share Posted September 1, 2007 Any particular reason for this? EDIT: apart from the obvious, I mean did you have any problems that made you do it? Yes, the turbo needed to be re-furbed. The shaft was bent (had been to about 1500 C in its life. I dread to think when and the bearing was also ruined. Sent to turbo dynamics and let them and tdi spec it. im looking forward to the results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpslaughter1982 Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 My PHR street kit made 415 at the hubs at 1.4bar. I'd expect yours to make a fair bit more, maybe 440 at the hubs. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burna Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Jon rang me earlier and he was very happy so far. He's swore me to secrecy though Gaz1 was with him and did ask if I was drunk though, whats that all about Ba*tard I'm betting you won't hear from Jon until tomorrow now as I think he was planning on going out on the lash with Gaz.

What power did it make before it was sorted by TDI? 447 at the wheels @ 1.3 bar. Turbo has been re-furbed since then and is a completly different car to drive. It drives like a normal car. Its lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
