I'm a nube here & have the chance to get a Kerma tune box &/or a Digi pro PD. Whats best to buy??Thanks B
A boost gauge is always a good idea. I don't know of any tuning box that can stop a trouble code from an EGR delete though. There is a rather archaic method of keeping the light off using something called an "epsilonian device" or there is something they call the "MAF twist". Either way, I don't think you can stop the trouble code this way without hurting performance (since you basically have to trim MAF voltage to trick the ECU) and just programming it out would save you a whole lot of headaches.Thanks Guys! That's great info. Would a boost guage be helpfue with either? If I do an EGR delete will I have trouble with codes using the Digi box? B
There is no way to do this with vag-com. It has to be done along with tuning. Trouble code fault paths need to be changed to block the codes.Just programming it out with vag com or can a tune do so as well?
If the boost gauge helps or not depends on you interpretating the values and you right footThanks Mike. A boost gauge help to not go too far then? I'm learning here. What does the EGT gauge do/good for? Thanks
A boost gauge is just nice because you have some idea of what's going on while you're driving. It can be helpful for tuning purposes, but a log using VCDS is actually a lot more useful in that regard. As JP123 said, EGT is a measurement of the heat being generated and reflects how heavily loaded down the engine is. If you climb a lot of long grades this might be really nice to know so that you can keep temps under control.Thanks Mike. A boost gauge help to not go too far then? I'm learning here.
