You got your own personnel map or on the generic map? I believe lee has this and has spent a small fortune to no avail. I believe its down to the copied map and if it was mapped to that engine that the engine would run spot on.

Clive,


I would check the coils first off - I may have a spare set I could send you if you get stuck?

It does sound like a dodgy coil pack I must admit. Yes

The lack of power after 5k is what mine did when the cat was kanckard. I would look at your exhaust in case something has gone wrong with that.

Check fuel flow rate on the rail return as per my text.

Did you want to send me the ECU to look at / test?

Fuel pump was the problem , changed the regulator as well as I had damaged the O rings , don't bother trying to find replacements , just get a Bosch 3bar one from a golf , the seals are better (green ) , mine cost me £2.00 complete !
