Vw t6 in today sounded like massive boost leak and no power up on ramp and notice top of cat and all back of engine covered in soot so time to remove to investigate and ones shields removed and a quick wire brush remove all the exhaust paste we are treated to this at present it looks like some pop up mapping/tuning company that aint got a clue but decided buy a clone kit off ebay and map the world. Dpf egr and adblue solutions to ecu but gutted cat sh*tly welded and left the dpf as standard now has a blocked dpf massive blow on the cat section turbo noisy as back pressured up . Please be careful who you choose for your vehicle mapping/tuning solutions this is going cost a lot to correct and tuners dont want to know about it
