1987 Audi 5000cs low boost

[Eric Huppert]

Gentlemen,

 

Seeing as how my son didn't provide particulars ref his low boost problem!

 

Car has an IA ECU. He's also tried the other modified ECU he has.

 

Has heavier wastegate spring.

 

Don't believe any codes. Wastegate moves freely, clunks as it should.
Diaphragm was replaced previously. (moot point, bad diaphragm creates over
boost!)

 

Tested/repaired WOT switch. Working properly!

 

Disconnected Multi func sensor to ensure overheat signal not being sent!

 

Michelin man hose good.  Car has one of my old 20v intercoolers and BPV
installed. BPV is good. No apparent boost leaks

 

Switched out waste gate solenoid, no change. Need to further test. But,
would think the stiffer wastegate spring would apply a little more pressure
