Sounds like the clutch is slipping. Helix clutch from Awesome GTI and flywheel from carparts4less or give Alex at AKS a call.

Yeah your map has probably killed the clutch. Time for an uprated one as above.

THIS.

few of us have had problems with Helix supplying the wrong clutch. If you go to Alex he will make sure you get the right clutch fitted at the best price  :happy2:
