What did you do to your Polo today?

[h100vw]

Got my bluetooth OBDII adaptor so that I could watch what is going on in the brains of the little Polo. Quite surprised to see boost peak at 30.6 psi! Mind you this was second gear so I am going for a bit of a run tomorrow to do some more "testing"

That's wrong, there's something not right in that app. Mine reads wrong at idle so I don't trust it at all. You would see less boost in 2nd than 3rd or 4th. I think there's a way to calibrate the app but never bothered to look.

If it was making 30PSI, it wouldn't be long before the turbo gave up or you ran into the back of something.

thezoner32 has a VCDS if you want to check it properly.

Hi Guy's, a reunion,
I wish my reunion was a cheery one but after many hours of wheel change any making my car look the best it has in a while, I had the misfortune of stacking it, mostly cosmetic a left front wheel, front guard, the whole front, hood, a pillar, door, rear Q panel, radiator, FMIC and piping, and all the airbags on the passenger side. I should have her up and running in the next 6 months. she may not be painted though. So much to be said for the semi slicks, that was my down fall. Just changed back to the Works and not semi's.

Still love the way she makes me feel.

Cheers Van

Oh No Van

I was going to say how good it was to see you on here, but not with that news.
Want to share what happened with us, what did you hit, a tree?
Poor polo, oh and glad to hear your ok

Nothing that solid, but it has left dents and scars from the front thru the left side to the rear bumper, will have to replace rear quarter panel, door, front quarter panel, hood, front clip, seat, and all the left hand air bags, going around a round-a-bout one that i have done a hundred times and at speed 120-130 with the semi's, but when I changed to the show wheels she no stick to the ground anymore, not all bad this will get me of my ars_ to pump the guards, get the new wheels, bag it and finish the interior so that I can compete with your rad ride. Im so looking forward to more mods.

Cheers

Sorry for the bad Iphone Pics

Used a 4mm base plate and had it laser cut, also has feet welded underneath and is bolted tight from underneath the car also, so no bolts can be seen
