No power on 5k revs and above!
« on: April 23, 2012, 11:52:05 am »
I wanted to do a speed test on my car private road of course and as I accelerated up the gears I reached about 145 mph and I looked at the clock and noticed the rev was just sitting at 5k and moving very slowly and the speed was Bearly picking up, my concern Is that i am on stage 2 with hpfp and my mates car with stage 1 very smoothly and effortlessly went to 160 with no drama at all.
What could the problem be here, I have diverter D so no that and also have the bsh pcv fix?

i've got the same thing lots of power low down then after 5k seems to drag
only had the problem after my remap

i did some test data on vag-com and sent it to bluefin as my remap is from them

they are suggesting its my wastegate or the n75

still need to do some more test on the fuel pump to make sure its delivering at top end

Yes i have all the suporting hardware for stage 2 including TBE and itg intake, Yeah k03s do run out but not so bad as if there nothing left because my car just stops there and goes VERY slow up compared to my friends gti whch flew up,
I have a AMD remap btw and its generic not custom, Could it be map related?
