Are you asking if you need to be retuned for the IX DV as opposed to the VIII? You shouldn't need a new tune as long as you aren't seeing knock or any issues with your boost set. I'm guessing the VIII just couldn't hold the boost while the crushed IX could. If the adjusted boost (it sounds like 25) is running well you should be good and it means your crushed IX DV is doing well.

*edit - think of it this way, if you are running a IX DV and you are tuned and running well and you decide to crush the IX DV and you are now running more boost through the system (meaning, the non-crushed IX leaked a bit) then you should be good. Again, as long as you aren't seeing issues such as knock and are running within what you consider your boundaries. I think it wise that you turned the boost down since you didn't know what you were hitting above 30. Your tuner should have the answer for what they consider a good boundary for your setup, since they know your car directly. Good luck!

 

^ Yeah, and like I said whatever they tuned it for, set it at that, and its already tuned.

Just not leaking anymore, I don't know why anyone that tunes for a living would tune something that's leaking...makes no sense, but whatever.

 

I have a Similar setup I am building but I went with the Green and I have a Forge RS BOV, I would recommend that BOV anyday.

They assume everything is ok.. thats why you sign a waiver in reputable shops. They should also let you know of any mechanical problems found

 

funny thing is i signed no waiver, and i told TTR about the Valve and i said i had a crushed nine valve, they said the one i had on there (plastic 8) was fine...go figure

 

What an accomplishment after so long, good job man...enjoy. Does it feel like night and day or is that a understatment?

 

seems like a hell of a brother to get a gift like that lol

 

You should make sure your air fuel ratios are good. Since you had a leaking blow off valve, all that air that should have gone into the engine escaped. Now that all that air is not escaping with a good blow off valve, you probably are running more lean.

 

when the car is running correctly yes, its completley different. it pulls and pulls, theres no letting go.

yea hes awesome, we buy mods for each other for birthdays and such and we try not to cheap out

true i need to get my hands on a wideband and a way to log it

 

Congratulations on being so patient, I would have trouble seeing those parts every day and not installing them immediately.

It will be a night and day difference once you get them installed and tuned properly.

 

pm'd you

 

throw in a tbe and intake and maybe he'll hit high 300s

 

if your talking about me, i already have a intake and TBE

 

Nice parts, should be a nice wake up...Itll get old fast and youll want more....

 

^haha... i know what ya mean.. I need more powa!

Woah.. My 8 dv leaked at 19psi. lol. the crushed one is good for what 29's
