There's a few threads about it but generally speaking the lower the price the more adjustments to make it fit will be.

someoen is selling a BMS intercooler for ~$300 right now. Likely the best price vs quality you can get.

I’m not sure if you put that in the wrong thread cuz I’m having trouble grasping the relevance.

Finally, turbo surge protection routines were recalibrated to prevent low rpm high load compressor surge in various conditions.

Talking to the shop on Friday, tech said my waste gate was making excessive noise, and that hed adjust it and run a reset on it and see if that would solve the issue. Said that kowing the issue and hearing the wastegate act like it is he said it’s probably having a hard time properly regulating boost and it’s overshooting and cutting power. Will report back when I hear more

So to me, at this moment, it looks like the issue all along was a bad wastegate adaption. Wastegate adaption reset and after 2 days it’s not having power on/off rapidly under steady 50-80% throttle. The adaption can be reset with obdeleven or whatever vagcom type hookup modern enough to talk with 2019+ models.

I've been having this same issue with just recently switching to the high torque map (Stg 1) from APR. That being said I'm in New England and just like everywhere else this year, its been record breaking hot. I'm having 'hiccups' or 'blips' of lost power between 3-4k in multiple gears across the power band. This was never the case in the low tq map, and now im wondering what is causing this. No aftermarket IC, but also wondering if its spark (need new plugs or new gap %).
This isn't worth the difference in power if its a problem with the high tq map from APR, the low tq map was perfect up until the switch.

You need an IC for sure.

It will be happening as it’s slowly becoming a track car, but maybe a little more discussion on the topic instead of just resorting to adding aftermarket parts. There’s got to be more thought to it than that. But! If it cools down and the problem goes away, then I guess you’re correct.

What I was getting at is because you don't have an upgraded IC it's probably heat soaked reducing power.

As I said a few posts up, I had the issue from day one on the apr low torque tune, switched to hi torque and it was still there. The new tuner happened to notice the waste gate was pretty noisy and did an adaption reset on it. This practically eliminated the problem. A week later i maybe felt it once but it was significantly softer. I’m loving this stage 1 hi torque now
