    RS2 intermittent boost - any ideas?

    Any ideas on what this problem might be?

    Turbo lacking bite - getting a double boost. Initially goes up to a healthy 1.5 bar, then drops to 1.2 before going back up to 1.4 when you keep the foot down.

    Intermittent - sometimes fine, but more often than not displays above symptoms.

    Stock engine that runs otherwise perfect (only mod is K&N air filter). 113k and FSH, regularly serviced by experienced specialist with no expense spared.

    No apparent leaks or fault codes showing.

    Simple or £££ kerrching?
    Racing's important to men who do it well. When your racing its life. Anything that comes before or after is just waiting.

    do the usual, clean the MAF and check the coil pipes as well.
    then look for any obvious hose leaks or breaks.

    This could also be a bad DV. Are you using the OEM diverter valve? the membrane may be split
