Is this normal?
yeah even at 3/4 throttle you still should be boosting in the double digits which is plenty to feel a kick. and like some other were saying after about 3500 rpms your rpms should be shooting up much quicker while boosting if you are at all... check it out before anything stupid happens and the dealership pins it on you.
Really hard to tell without a WOT comparison. Throttle response should change dramatically once you enter boost (at around 3500 RPM) and you should really be screaming forward at 6000 RPM even stock. Of course, that only matters if you constantly apply throttle pressure and stay in the rev band as you shift. If you are just constantly at 6000 RPM in first you will be going about 40 MPH and I think that is normal.
I just went out and did another run, again without WOT but the boost isn't kicking in...2nd, 3rd and 4th gear it kicks in a little above 3,000. I'm going to go to the dealership this weekend see what they say, I'm not going to DIY this since I still have my warranty.
Here is my WOT in 1st from low rpms. I was turning at the beginning and the tires broke loose tho.. That's what the yellow message was for.
