The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

That sounds about right. A stage 2+ runs 1.5 bar.

Std ed 30 should peak at 0.9bar not 1.1????

I have read a few threads about this in the last couple of days - seems like a few of the tuners have got the maps slightly wrong and on some cars the fuel pump (the one in the engine bay) can't supply the requested pressure and the ECU reduces the boost significantly.

Does it only do it in higher gears?

1st gear and 2nd gear only lost a little power. 3rd is ok too. but yes 4th 5th and 6th suffer the most. i think it mite be a faulty flap motor in the intake manifold. or i have been told.

Mine accoarding to my Vagcom logging data, (edition30) im pulling 1.8 Bar from my stage 1 Bluefin from 2500 to almost 6300rpm

The Bluefin map does request high boost readings looking at the data.
