The first thing to check with a 1.8T that dont spool fast is the cam timing, just a tooth retard will eat all the low down power.  The cam timing can be out because of poor fitting or the cam belt being stretched.

The next thing to remember is that your running the lower 95 ron map, which will have a lot less ignition advance and  the peak load request (boost) will be a lot lower vs a map wrote for 98 fuel. 


So by disconecting the N75 valve to allow the turbo to boost into oblivion is only really going to show you that there is more head room for boost, which I am 99% there will be.  What yo need to do is find someone with vagcom who can log the requested/corrected and actual engine ms boost/load request and N75dc%, once you know what the ecu is asking for and how hard the hardware is working to meet the requested values, then you can start fault finding.

If you was running a map for the higher ron fuel then I would expect a huge kick of power down low along with some more risky advance, but a map for 95 ron IS going to be held back to reduce peak cylinder pressures.

Your only 35mins from us up the A444, If you give Pip a call on 01455 671233 and tell him Nick said book in for a quick logging session for free..  He will demand you bring hobnobs with you..lol

By having a logging session you will know whats going on and the way forward if any, so your not wasting your time trying to fix fault that aint there.

lol that sounds good to me :) I want to book in anyway for a TIP/DV, messaged you about it previously just that works been hugely in the way lately. What are your xmas opening times? I'm off between xmas day to jan 3rd so was wondering if you're open that week on any days as it'd be ideal nip down for the full check up anyway and of course logging sesh and to fit a 007p if not the tip... can always come back for that once we know if I need spend cash elsewhere however.

I will bell the office as soon as I can aswell actually :)

We have not booked any time off yet for xmas, it seems Pips just booking the diary up solid.. :shocked: 
With the work load we have on I think we will only be closed half day on the 24th and re-open the 29th, finish half day on the 31st then re-open Monday 4th Jan.  But we might do half days on the 27th and 28th dec and  3rd Jan just for remaps only.  If you drop Pip a line we will get you a day sorted.

Very busy indeed! lol I will bell Pip up one morning this week to see what we can sort out. I will leave the TIP for now and get an 007p and the check up/logging done, save you some time :D Can nip back whenever for TIP.

Cheers Nick :)

Your best bet is leave the TIP for now, and spend the time making sure the car is in tiptop condition first then you can start spending money to to enhance the performance without it being a waste of money and effort.

May aswell get R-Tech fit one for 85 with the correct spring :) I don't know what I'm doing messing with cars lol.

Yeah I think I'll get the recirc valve anyway whilst I've got a few quid Nick and leave the TIP for the time being :)
