On the Ed30 to check the DV is very simple and probably worth doing anyway.

pain in the ass on the K03. Much easier on the k04.

It wont be dv if it pulls as hard like you say. Does sound like another "rare" case of superchips suppling the wrong map :innocent:

My Manual map gave me poor increase in torque and horrendous gear change pause with my DSG car. They do two versions of map for each type of gearbox,a toned down less aggressive type and a more aggressive version, which ive trying both and found the lata much better  :happy2:

As far as i am aware, it is standard Dv.
Phoned superchips and guy confirmed it is the right map, most recent and asking for full torque / power low down.
He told me to revert to standard and try reloading the map in again.....so thats what im doing right now. I will drive car standard again to see if it is boosting ok near 3000rpm,  then i will remap it again.

Lots of superchips customers have had similar issues, they are very good at customer service, and if you stick with it  they will sort it for you. It might take a few tweaks to your map though.  :happy2:

Also there are a few members who have had it, and they just couldn't get on with it. They didn't like the delivery of it.  :smiley:

Well had it back to standard driven it and back with the map on.  Really strange as below 4200 RPM it doesnt feel much different, almost like it is holding back, then big delivery after said rpm. 
As i said i phoned SC and they say my handheld has latest software and power / torque to come in as early as poss, so i am a bit bewildered. I expected the power to be big all the way from 3000RPM, so i believe there is something not just right.
It is only the initial acceleration that is suffering because when going hard through the gears it is rarely below 4000RPM so feels very quick through the gears......just that initial build up is a bit toothless  :confused:

Get her on the rollers tbh maybe, and that might help in the diagnosic.

Mine certainly isnt lethargic, turbo spools up from 2800-3000rpm with Bluefin,no where near as late as yours.

Are you running 99 octane aswell?
