Default Any Dahlback users have problems using the ****?

My block 032 never settled in properly and I kept changing MAFs thinking that was the issue. With the suggestion of boostedTT, I changed back to the OEM housing and lo and behold its perfect again. I used to have soft limp under WOT and now its perfect. My 032 settled to -2.4% when it used to go up to around 12-14. It could just be my car and me doing something wrong, hence why I want to know if anyone with the Dahlback chip is using the **** with no problems.

Default you may want to check with Steve...but i know>>>

that Dahlback fueling requirements, and agressive tuning can be hit or miss with Steve's stuff....your programming just may be too agressive for the ****....

btw- you running a 4 bar FPR?

Yes, I was running the 4 bar...it seemed as though it was just too much fuel.

Default so, with the ****, and the Dahlback chip>>>

you were running a 3bar??? If so, that is your problem...lean conditions. 4 bar would prevent that, or an adjustable FPR....the car may run a bit rich, but that is to prevent detonation, and it is only on the top end. Do you have any VAG run numbers with a 4bar?

I've not had this problem (APR software + 4 bar, TTDA/**** + DB manifold), runs great.

Default Dahlback must run very rich..>>

with those numbers. A/F's I have seen would seem to confirm. Try with a 3 bar and see if it doesn't come back in line...
