Bleeder Vavle

[Bill Rowe]

Try www.hallmanboostcontroller.com.  I installed one in my 87 5ktq w/
satisfactory results.  I'm sure it will work on your A4.

So what is the Max boost that our cars can handle (and what is stock
boost?) Ive had my car for about a year but have not really read up on
it much,

I know a boost gauge is a must, without it  there is no way to know what
i'm boosting at, I don't want to achive maximum performance, just give
it a little puch (maybe 20hps) I know the chip is the best solution but
i'm screwed if somethings happends where has with the bleeder valve
(although it's the worse mod possible!) if somethings blows I could just
remove it, even if they know it's cause of overboosting it's alot easier
to fight whebn the rest of the car is bone stock. with the chip there is
nothing I can do, they just show me the computer and "you put in a chip
sorry no warranty"

Can I install a manuel Boost Controllor on our cars? will the computer
react to the extra boost and compensate fuel? or will it just shut down?
