Default limp mode???
how much are you boosting? I ended up in limp mode quite a few times last summer due to an oiled-up MAF sensor, didn't throw a CEL and I couldn't boost more than 5-6psi and the car felt a lot slower.

Default never mind...
I just re-read the post and realized you are talking about 1rst gear. It's not like you would see 20psi in 1rst gear anyways.

If my 1st gear felt like 3rd it would be my favorite gear as well, explain further.

Lol. Sorry. I meant the car revs in 1st just like it does in 3rd as in power delivery is very slow.

I'll try to log the car this weekend. Still boosting full 18psi, but the car seems to be asleep.

Default Yea mine too. I think its my wastegate not being closed fully. When I installed my k04 I think it
was open a little bit. At the time I didn't think anything about it. When it gets warm I'm going to unbolt my cat and feel if the wastegate is open.
