Alright i just bought a 97 talon tsi and cant figure out whats going on when I take off and reach about 10psi of boost in start to bog down and wont run right and you cant get the car to go over 20mph now im new to these cars and do not know a whole alot about them. I also am having problems with the oil pressure as it warms up it gets low oil pressure and the light start to flash now the guy i bought this off said he put the balance shaft eliminator on and the oil pump gears were scortched up a little could this be causing low oil pressure? see i bought this car real cheap it has 66,000 miles on it the guy i bought this off of said he thinks the person who had it before him turned the boost up and messed something up any input would help thanks.
 
Time to start going through the car. Check to see if the injectors are stock, and turbo. Almost sounds like fuel cut. If you can snap a bunch of pics of the injectors and turbo and oil pump gear and pm them to me I could probably help you better. Have you checked the ecu? Do the general maintenance, then check everything you can. Some ideas Fuel pump voltage, what mods does the car have, alternator, injectors (are they good), turbo (what is it), BOOST LEAK TEST!, and BOOST LEAK TEST!
