    Could be a blocked CAT alright... but check the throttle pot is doing its thing and that VAGCOM declares WOT when it should - the throttle opening determines how much boost you get. Should be seeing 1.5 to 1.6bar max on that setup, tailing off to 1.3 approx at redline.

                Went out for a spin in this today now it's cured and it's very impressive. It's now got 'Hoffer76' 390 spec chips in, boosted to 2bar in 4th, pulls like a train

                    How come you did not hear & feel it running on 4 pots only?

                      It wasn't doing this to start with mate, it was running on all 5 pots but not boosting past 1 bar the missing cylinder seemed to come on over night and luckily by curing that problem we solved the lack of boost aswel
