After finding a big boost leak and fixing that and now getting a stable boost level but only 8 psi after scanning the car again came across a new problem when on full load the apr r1 recirc is releasing air as its on load now my question is has anyone come across this before , after looking up the apr r1 its ment to be faultless and the best and should nt fail ??? or is there a service kit or repair kit for one of these , it was bought from awsome gti as it had the apr remap too ?????
 
APR are sponsors on here. It might be worth contacting Evan for some more information.
 
The R1 is a diaphragm valve and fails just like the OEM ones do... seen a few fail and one did during a track day nuking the hybrid K03 that was fitted to the car...

I wouldn't be using one personally..
