Anyone have the edc 16 calc they could share? All of the links no longer work.

Thanks for responding, I appreciate it. I am using a generic blue VAG KKL cable. Here is what happens when i try to run the program. C:\Users\Tristan\Desktop>kw1281test COM6 10400 1 dumpedc16eeprom KW1281Test: Yesterday's diagnostics...Today. Version 0.99.2-alpha...

Will this software work with EDC16 ECU's? I am trying to program a second key for my car (04 BEW) and i am unable to connect to my instrument cluster via kw1281test or VCDS.

I took everything apart set the actuator to crack open at 5mmhg and hit the stop screw at 18mmhg, locktited it all and put it back together. I am still over-boosting. Here is the log after setting everything perfectly. Is that normal over-boost amounts or is there something still wrong. I...

Ok, that’s not normal. Check vacuum at the turbo actuator, you should see 18-20 hg at idle.

The Vnt-17’s are bigger turbos they do tend to spool at a higher engine rpm, but it shouldn’t have crazy boost lag. I would check for any vacuum leaks and check n75 valve functionality. Another possibility is that you may need to get your car retuned for the bigger turbo.

Nevermind, the vanes are not jammed. I pulled the turbo off and it appears the stop screw for the actuator lost the nut and has been moving around causing under and overbooting.

I checked and my turbo vanes are jammed up. How is this possible when I just rebuilt it and cleaned everything before I put it together?

Is that dangerous for the engine, or is it just wasting fuel?

When I was taking that log it felt like I had really bad boost lag. It was basically zero boost then it all came at once. Any ideas on what is going on?

here is the Log on I took on a test drive

Do the logging with MAF plugged in I assume, right?

I haven’t touched the set screw as I heard those are set from factory correct (x-man turbo core). When I put the turbo together and checked the actuator I remember it did hit the stop around 18hg but I remember it also cracked open around 1-2hg. I’ll double check it.

I unplugged the MAF and took my car for a drive. It was noticeably slower but did not overboost while still hitting max boost (around 24-25 psi). Could this mean that the tune tuned out the MAF and are supposed to leave it unplugged? Or could it be that the MAF is bad and causing the car to...

Here is a video of the turbo overboosting I’m not sure if it is a faulty sensor or the tune that is making it overboost so much. I’d think the ECU would throw it into limp mode but it did not.

I’m thinking it’s the tune

How much more fuel is it consuming? Revving it a little before letting out the clutch should be negligible fuel consumption wise. Also what color smoke?

With that being said does the boost log look like everything is ok for a Vnt-17 turbo? I want to drive the car but I also don’t want to ruin another turbo.

I looked back at my video of the boost gauge. The line popped off the gauge at about 25psi. (Thought it was 30 because the boost climbed quick) I forgot to put a clamp on the hose going to the gauge

Sorry. To clarify the first turbo (the one that was in the car when I bought it) was a Vnt 17 ID tag reads 778445-5002S. After that one blew up I installed a Vnt 15. After that one blew up I rebuilt the Vnt-17 with a X-man turbo core gt1749vb 721021. 1. Vnt 17 2. Vnt-15 3. Rebuilt Vnt-17...
