I saw in a thread that you had just installed that bicooler and ambient was around 80 right? Then it should perform better, did you check everything during install? Those hoses can have a lot of overflow in the t connection that needs to be trimmed.

Start with checking plugs or just replace if they have 15k+ km on them.
Its not that bad though but when it pulls timing for that long something is probably off.
KR without load is not really an issue though but again something that it generally should not do often or over extended periods.

Yeah i can see my iats are pretty high. I took the tray off from underneath to check the hose fitment, everything looks like its hooked up snug. There is a piece on the bend in the front that is beings pressed by the bumber slightly but if looks like it would still allow airflow. There is about a 1/8 gap in the fitment if one of the t’s butcthe clamp is on there tight and is secure. I take it that the ends of the connection to the stock intercooler spot on the hoses iscthe part that people usually trim af an angle for better fitment?
I mean on the inside of the hoses did you make sure all the passages was clear.
So i tried to trim one the best i could with only the skid tray off. What i ended up doing that i believe ended up solving it was readjust the a few of the clamps as they were slightly on the lip instead of behind it one one side of each. I think somehow this was letting some air in/escape and affecting iats. I will log tomorrow since im at work now and see how the iats look. I did a couple of pulls today and temps were about 15 degrees over ambiant at wot.I mean on the inside of the hoses did you make sure all the passages was clear.

No i didnt really check inside. If problems persist I will take it all apart and checkI mean on the inside of the hoses did you make sure all the passages was clear.
So I removed the hood noise damperer and first now noticed flutter sound between 3-4k rpm at WOT in low gear. I've checked my MST intake twice, can't find any leaks.
Is it just overboost causing this? Any concerns? It does it on my map 6 but also map 4. Map 0 (disabled) it doesn't do it.

Unless you feel some surging stumble on accel its just the DV being overactive as it is used more for boost control on Simos 18.10 cars.
Yeah figured it was OK and drives perfectly normal but wanted to ask to be sure

Hi guys! New here but been on Vortex for a long time and have been running JB4's on a few successive VW's.
Ran into a problem last night and I'm hoping you guys might be able to shed some light on what's happening. I've got a 2019 Golf R running a JB4 on Map 4, CTS catted downpipe, inlet pipe, intake pipe and panel filter, and a turbo muffler delete. I ran the car out at the local strip at the end of last summer and was pretty happy with the results. I was running Petro 94 octane and was doing pretty consistent 12.2s @ 112 on a 3600ft DA day. Last night I went out and couldn't get better than a 12.8@106. Nothing has changed on the setup of the car aside from running Chevron 94 this time around. DA was around 3600ft all evening, so I'm not sure why the car was down so much on power. Looking at the logs it seems to go very rich as soon as it's into 3rd gear. Did I get a bad tank of fuel or is there something else going on I need to chase?
One run from last year, when the car was running 12.2..

Both evenings were in the low 20s Celsius. It was probably slightly cooler last night than night I went out last summer.

map2 vs 4
different firmware
not running any fueling bias
quite a few differences
