Default Does anyone think I should not do this for any reason? new fuel program

Gonna put on a 5bar fpr, use GIAC's k04 program which utilizes the 5bar fpr, and run a stock k03.

My car is a 2001.

Any reason why this won't work? (My car is currently running lean on GIAC-X chip)

Doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

Default Since you have X-chip already. I would use GIAC mobile tuner adjust your fueling...

Revo Lemiwinks is a another option. You need a laptop and a Vag cable and your good to go.

That is not a very good ideal. KO3 can not produce KO4 boost request.

Default OK! How about this: k04/boost controller/GIAC 2001 K04 software/5bar fpr/lemmiwinks to adjust timing

I think this would work really well. From what I understand, when upgrading a turbo 3 things need to be changed.

1. Fuel needs to be adequate (ECU controls this by reading MAF?) So, the GIAC K04 program should take care of all of this
2. Boost requested by ECU needs to be changed (solved with the boost controller)
3. Timing needs to be advanced in the ECU (I will advance the timing using lemmiwinks)

MMart says his car sustains 28psi at times. So I figure, just up the boost using a boost controller (the GIAC 2001 software doesn't provide enough boost).

Ofcourse I will need a fmic. That way I will be able to advance the timing a lot and maybe see the same numbers mmart is seeing.

How about that now?

Default Seeing the GIAC FX (bigger injector program) for the 2002-2004s with gains to 240-250hp

but the problem is that they use much larger injectors (360cc or so I believe?)

whereas mine would be equivalent to about 348cc (270cc w/5bar fpr), which wouldn't be as effective power efficient as their setup.

Default GIAC 2001 K04 software?

if there was such a thing, you wouldn't need to further tune.
