MAF readings

My MAF used to read 270+g/s, but recently I only got 255-260. Thought to try new MAF (as exchange unit), but it's reading even less, 250-255.
I still have the old one, should I keep it?
From what the MAF reading depends on?

You could log block 54 (I think from memory, block 54) and check your throttle plate is actually fully open. If it wasn't opening fully then the MAP sensor before the TB could read higher than the manifold? Could your gauge be knackered? Will do some logging later this week. Gauge has worked fine m...

I've read someone once suggested getting vacuum/boost from intake manifold right behind throttle body.
APR gauge install instructions also point to vacuum hose from IM, but the pic inside is not from 2.7T engine. Is it this one?

DV line seems to be another option.

Boost gauge install

I have connected the gauge with T-piece to FPR hose and it worked ok for a long time, but recently I noticed I'm missing couple PSIs of boost (on the gauge) - it usually holds 16-17 psi, with 19-20 spikes. Now it shows ca 13 psi, spiking to 16. Checked with VAG-COM, no fault codes and logged block 1...

How old is your chip and did you get the remap from the supplier direct? If you did Id be inclined to ask the tuner what materials he thinks the KO3's are made from? :lol: I've been running with this chip about 4 months (5000 km). It's from Fastech tuning, http://www.fastech.de/Tuning/audi/a4_id/A4...

Can you tell just by reading block 115 that you have a boost leak?
How much the actual boost may differ from requested boost?
And if there is a difference, this can only be from leak? No other possibilities?

Block 115

Did some logging, to see how actual boost compares to requested boost. Here's the output (Engine speed, Engine load, Spec'd Boost, Actual Boost): 1480 24.1 990 980 1520 28.6 990 980 1720 83.5 2230 990 2040 102.3 2320 1110 2560 131.6 2310 1410 3400 191.7 2400 2230 4120 186.5 2420 2040 4760 175.9 2450...

Did the test yesterday, 17 degrees C outside, and managed 5.92 sec with completly stock S4 Avant 2001. But I think the road was slightly downwards. Will have to find straight road and run again. Anyway, data from log-file, block 002 STAMP /min % ms g/s 0 2840 31.6 3.4 27.44 0.48 2920 66.2 8.5 68 0.9...
