Have you checked the chipset, sounds to me like the very same deal I had
with TAP stage 3 software.
There is a fix !

You are in Canada as well, where ?

Greetings to the list!  I just signed on today to see what's on the list
these days.  A few of you may remember me from 5 or 6 years ago on the
original q-list.... I had a 5kTQ rally car (Charlie Smith spring and a Paul
Timmerman boost bleeder) and a 4000SQ with a turbo transplant...

Now I have a '90 90 rally car with a mostly stock '93 S4 motor which is why
I'm checking out S-CAR. Check our out-of-date website:
www.paradoxracinggroup.com.  The team urq was recently sold to a lister near
Toronto!

The only mods to the motor are the intercooler from Demon Tweeks and the K&N
air filter.  I'm hoping to learn a few things about increasing performance
from listers.  But more importantly (and of great current frustration), the
motor overboosts when pushed all the way, cuts out briefly, and then
switches to 7 lbs safe mode until re-started.  VAG-COM tells me overboost
was detected.  Anyone interested or knows this one?

I'm a quiet lister (with many BTDTs on the UPS to Canada scam - suggestion:
use the US Post Office if you can get the vendor to do it).

Best wishes,
Steve Barnes
