Greetings all! I am new here, and I am asking for help in what direction to look on my '08 GTi with APR K04. Under heady load (3/4 to full throttle) in upper RPMs, I am having an issue with the engine "breaking up" or missing. Of course once this start happening, I immediately let off the throttle to avoid engine damage. Below is a list of the modifications, and items replaced as well:
APR K04 Turbo and software
Run Flap Delete
S4 injectors
APR HPFP
GFB diverter valve spacer
3" downpipe & APR RSC exhaust system
Red Top coil packs
IE intake system
I have been researching this, and I have ordered an RS4 pressure relief valve, which should be in my hands within the next two days. Have you guys noticed this part to help with this issue? Also, I have NOT upgraded my intercooler yet, but I do have an OEM S3 unit ready to go in, however I am doubting this causing the issue.
