1 i think there is a check/oneway vavle on that outlet as if you put the ECU pipe one that one by mistake the ECU can't see any boost and the car runs badly, have a look at the brake servo pipe just before the check vavle there's a spare point there that works 2 with boost return deletion you should get a dump vavle noise anyway

oil pumps pack up more so if on longlife servicing. make sure the cambelt and water pump been changed -
a mate at works just bought it and has big plans for it 8) , it will be a show winner. its still a bit heavy at 750kg with a full tank need to strip a bit more yet :)

have you checked the pressure? it maybe a faulty switch or wiring?
-
but if it needs to vent over boost ie a boost spike then it can't, then your rods bend then pistons fly out the block ect ect

if this is a 92 golf td then its a ve engine, that means no lift pump in the tank,just the one pump on the engine runing off the cambelt
-
check the bleed off pipes on the injectors for leaks and check the rest of the pipes aswell. if fuel is leaking out air will get in and diesels don't like air in fuel lines

get some goodyear F1's
