	Dump valve releasing too early on S3 8l BAM « on: September 24, 2013, 12:45:15 PM »

Hi guys, i bought an S3 BAM and the condition was looking good. But the car pulls good until 6000rpm and then a dump valve releases when the car is still on full throttle. I dont get any errors after that.

When i was doing checks i realized that a turbo inlet horse has teared into peaces where it clamps on the turbo inlet. Will this be causing a problem as a MAF might be having a false reading due to air sucking after an airflow meter.

I have attached a map that i have downloaded using Genius. Please help me to analyze if a map looks original or tuned as this will help me to find a problem.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

The map is original.

The car is not supposed to have a dump valve, but a recycling bypass valve instead.
In case there is a dump valve installed, remove and replace it with a standard bypass valve.

And yes, atleast some of the issues are definitely caused by the teared TIP.

Before others tear you apart, fix any hardware problems before tuning.

Flushing always helps!

I have no logs because I have a boost gauge (makes things easier)

I agree at home. However when out and about I prefer to leave the flushing for the next guy. Gives him a sense of accomplishment.
