well finally worked out how to do some data logging on the LCR with vagcom

was a bit underwhelmed at what G/S reading ive got,
187 G/S
which is about 230BHP am i right?

well its been mapped at some point as my boost gague
spikes at about 24ish then drops to 19-20 whilst accelerating
so would have thought i would be looking at more overall bhp

any suggestions would be great

MAF could be on the way out. Don't forget remaps can change other parameters to make more power, like timing.

What gear did you use? Did you go right to 6500rpm? Can you post a log?

... and here's a quick graph:

Did you definitely have the throttle pinned flat right up to the redline? If so then looks like there's a dip around 6200rpm. If so then that would normally be explained by the standard TIP collapsing, but looks like you've got an upgraded one - although that doesn't mean it's not collapsing I guess. Did you see the boost dropping on your gauge around the same RPM?
 
if you log 002,115,118 at same time it will show how much boost is being asked for, and how hard the n75 is being made to achieve this.... so if its tired (turbo as well as maf) then its requested boost would be combined with a max'd n75 duty cycle 95% level

I wonder if its a fuel pump getting tired? :think: Certainly has enough fuel down low to give a remap level of torque (just shy of 270lbft), just not enough at the top end for the power. ECU possibly trying to add more fuel but can't, and hence shuts the throttle body itself. Clever things these 1.8Ts!

Have you tried driving it with the MAF unplugged to see if it goes any better?
