"X chip does not produce that much boost" -- prove it... cause it does in my car.
measured with a VAG COM. I also have your center vent boost gauge.
I also have your pressure testing kit... which I have used. I also have divertor valves which were purchased from you. I also have samco's purchased from you. N75 has been checked professionally. So has the MAF. Also, the X chip was purchased from you.
It appears to me the X chip DOES produce that much boost. Oh, and you are reading the post incorrectly. I didn't say the X chip holds 19psi up to 5200 rpm's in my car. I said the XR chip holds 24 psi from 2,800-5,200 rpm's in my car.
without looking at my VAG COM block 115 log files, I'd say the X chip holds 19psi from approx 3k rpms to about 4,800k

sorry. bugs me when a tuner tries to deny something I KNOW ...
just because it's something that might have an impact on their image or the image of the products they sell.
kinda sad... open and honest would gain my respect.

XR chip has been in for 3/4 tank of gas. stock chip is around 7-8 psi -- same temps.
throttle adapt is done on a weekly basis, with the motor warm, not hot or cold. xr chip would probably adapt after a few hundred miles and cool off...
but X has been giving me 19psi... sometimes a bit higher depending on engine load and conditions (temp, barometric pressure, hell - just the way the hairdryers feel that day)

probably.
requested boost on the xr chip is around 1.2 bar... actual is at 1.6+ bar...
go figure.
on the stock chip and the X chip however, requested and actual are very close together, as expected.
and yes... the car does make more power even above 1.3-1.4 bar...
although the word around here is that it won't make more power due to the efficiency range of the mini hairdryers. i'm thinkin not true. course, i'm gonna need another xr chipped s4 to run against to figure out if i'm def right.
butt dyno says... def more power.
