Default Question??? I got chipped last saturday with GIAC/Garett chip....then
after leaving PES everything was working great. I felt the turbo kicking in and everything. Sunday it was fine.. Monday.. it felt like I'm loosing a little power, but didnt think anything of it. Yesterday and today, I'm noticing that I don't have much pickup anymore.

Don't know if it's just me or something is wrong? I just don't feel that whiplash when the turbo kicks in... Or I'm just getting used to the speed... Any thoughts...

Default If you live in the Northeast it HAS been a lot hotter the past 3 days... also,
Try unplugging the ECU for 15 minutes and then plug it back in. Drive the car HARD the next few times you drive. Make sure you have 93+ octane gas in the car. This may fix your problems.

It certainly could be DV related.

Default Make sure its not leaking pressure around the Bypass valve due to a loose clamp or split hose. Also
have the throttle recalibrated with a vag tool.

Default You mean the Turbo-XS valve? I've got one on my car and if it's the same thing you have it's...
a bypass valve.
