Just got a call from a friend on his way back from Connecticut, where he was getting his Audi 1.8 tuned. Bigger snail/injectors/etc…his boost controller is failing for whatever reason and hes looking for a new one tonight.

Post up what you have and a fair price- im sure someone has a Halman or any other under the hood m.b.c. laying around they want to get rid of:thumb

Internal WG car? Just run a vaccum line from the outlet side of the turbo to the actuator, with a controlled leak in it somewhere (Home Depot is your friend)
