Getting rid of your chip will stop it, but who wants to do that?

You can fight through it with your foot also...

A wicked wheel will help, as well as a different housing... or a turbo swap.

The definite cure is an ATS ported compress housing. They usually run around 425-450.

A wicked wheel AND 1.0 exhaust housing can stop it as well if you have stock injectors and are not at a high elevation.

Can't port the OEM housing.
I tested the ATS, WW, and the ATS and WW.
  • ATS cured surge 100%.
  • WW cured about 80% or better.
  • ATS and WW cured surge but was too loud for long distance driving.
