Hello,

first off yes i did use the search function...half the threads don't half solutions because OP's don't report back or the go off topic on whos schwartz is bigger....

long story short...went for a drive last night outside temp was -10C
decided to do WOT 4th gear....i hit redline and and the car bogged and that was that....No boost pressure was being built and the car was severely down on power....got it home scanned it with vcds...got a MAF code and the p0087...i cleared it and went for trip around the block...if i got wot the car goes no where....my afr gauge shows that fuel is being dumped because at 2nd gear struggling to even hit 3k my afr shows 11.4 :1

light came back on again and this time it was p0087

Have you checked the hpfp and h2sport fix just to make sure they are ok?

^This, in fact I would call h2sport and tell them what is going on before I did anything else.

If that is all fine, I would replace LPFP, fuel filter, and N276. Depending on your mileage its just a matter of time before all of those need to be replaced anyway. It might be a good place to start.

N276 purchase: You will need to find someone with a spare to sell, or buy a new HPFP
LPFP purchase: http://www.ecstuning.com/Volkswagen-Golf_V--2.0T/Engine/Fuel/ES2179061/

N276 DIY: With fuel pressure relieved, the appropriate sized open ended wrench...
LPFP DIY: http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=129924

Edit: John at HPFPupgrade might be able to sell you a N276. It be worth asking him probably. http://hpfpupgrade.com/Products/Show/Volkswagen/2.0T+FSI/Audi+and+VW+DIY+Fuel+Pump+Upgrade But H2Sport upgrade is a pretty invasive change to your fueling system. Really would start with them before I spent money on this other stuff.

If ur only getting a only few bar when monitoring the high side pressure, and MVb 103 and 106 reading the same. If so I would install a known good sensor on top of the hpfp. U can swap the easily with a adjustable wrench.

Yep. It would be a lot faster and easier than swapping pumps

Also, I thought an H2Sport roller install included modifying the pump plunger? If so you will want to leave your APR pump like these guys are saying. The sensor on top is the N276. Try just swapping that.
