it cant be 147 before the remap and 147 after because the values they change when mapping create more boost and therefore more power.

what car and ECU does it have?
ARZ K03s, Oettinger Side Skirts, R32 front, Carbon stage 2, Forge 007p (yellow spring), Forge Actuator (yellow spring), Pipercross panel filter with DSG parts, N249 and N112 deleted, SAI deleted, Carbon canister deleted, Rear wiper deleted, Long Life turbo back custom exhaust with 200 cell sports cat, VR6/G60 clutch kit, Creation Motorsport TIP, Catch can, 'Wellycooler', K04 charge pipe, S3 ported inlet manifold - looks pretty standard on the outside though :)

If it was down on power to start with they should not have remapped it without sorting the problem.

They done the remap and i took it 4 drive and it didnt feel any different. They put it on the dyno and it said 143 bhp after the remap. The boost was only going at 0.3 or 3 bar on the dyno not to sure about boost readings. He took off some vacuum hose to the turbo and done the dyno run again and it boosted at 167 bhp. Told me it cud b n75. Replaced that but dosnt feel any diff. Does anyone have any ideas please?
