Default Bad Diverter valve???On GIAC big injector file

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/74799/custom_plate.jpg"></center><p>
I have been running the big injector file for about a month now and i have noticed a drop off in performance.

Im pretty sure its not just me getting used to the program.

I was running the stage one software before that and switched the stock diverter valve out for the Bosch 110 sport. This Valve is commonly found on turbo Porsche's and I was told it would support the presureof the original GIAC flash. Im worried that this valve is no longer offering enough resistance because on regular basis it seems like the turbo is bleeding pressure.

If I swiftly apply the throttle the car makes severe and constant wooshing sound. If i apply the throttle slowly It seems like i get full boost and the car will almost jump out from under me.

Im not sure what kind of PSI i am requesting vs. my acctual output. I feel like serious power is being resitricted/lost.

I am currently running the thermal R&amp;D Turboback race system (with downpipe). I figure the problem isnt in the back pressure. I have also check for boost leaks with no sucess.

Could the DV be the problem.

Is there anyone in the Orlando area with VAGCOM

PLZ Help

Default DV could be issue. But I must say before you dig too deep into this, scan with Vag-tool first

it really will give you best starting point. log channel 115 in m-blocks. start at 2500 rpm in 3rd gear and wot until redline.

could also be a coil pack problem
