I realize this is a super old thread. However, I'm reading it today so some one else is also I'm sure. My TDI (2004 bew 5spd 3" turbo back exhaust, otherwise stock) does choke down the vanes. Today I was descending a good hill. Let off the foot feed and watched my boost gauge go to 0psi and then climb back up to 6psi. This was in 3rd gear at about 2000-2500rpm. A little more back pressure in the exhaust would be good I think for long hill descents.
