I can't tell if I'm seeing cold weather boost cut or something else.
I have a stock 2008 MS3 and I've noticed that sometimes when hot-dogging into something like a traffic circle or a standard 90-degree turn, I'll get no boost at all while in turn.
example, I'll be hard in 3rd gear, then hard on the brakes, heel-and-toe blip into second, turn-in and then squeeze hard on the gas and...
nothing.
then, when I straighten the wheel I'm usually up at 4K RPM and the boost LURCHES on.
This is NOT the LSD limiting traction, this is simply having no real power for the LSD to have to limit.
thing is, it doesn't always do this. sometimes in a traffic circle (that I entered while in 2nd gear already), I can get the wheels to spin and give the LSD one heck of a hard time until I feather and let the front-end re-bite...
thoughts?
I've only really noticed this lately here in Indiana so maybe it is cold-weather related?
or maybe just steering related?
(dunno)
