Golf GTI Boost Graph - APR Stage 1

[Spraderz]

Hey Guys,

I have an 06 Golf GTI that is stock besides the APR Stage 1 tune. I have recently logged my boost VS RPM to get an idea when the turbo is fully spooled. Please see graph below:



From the graph I can see that the turbo is fully spooled by ~3000RPM. Can other APR stage 1 owners comment if they have similar results? I always thought that full boost could be achieved earlier as the K03 is a small turbo?

I have a Tarmac Engineering intake on its way and will soon after get a SPM Dump pipe and an Autotech HPFP, then get the APR stage 2+ tune. Does anyone have similar mods with the APR stage 2+ tune who can comment on when full boost is achieved? Does it spool faster since its more free flowing?

Thanks in advance

I just searched Google images for APR on Golf V GTI boost graphs & quite a few images came up. Stage 1 & 2 show ~ 3000 rpm is full boost so yours looks spot on with all the others.

K04 is considerably later than that again.
