Thanks for the advice.
I will go with BAM injectors and retune.

You should consider your fuel pump flow if you want to change fuel pressure. I would just take BAM injectors and tune properly for your setup (including fuel pressure).

Thank you very much.
I will have to call REVO in Greece to see if they have an upgrade 380cc setup for my ECU REVO file (8E0 909 518 AQ 0020).

I will report when done so.

Thanks again fro your help.

BAM injectors fitted (used, cleaned, metered) and REVO flashed 380cc map.
The car is now better, fuel trims injector timings are better, but the car isn't running perfectly.
When WOT it overshoots once the requested boost pressure and then it it matched.
Also there is a vibration under heavy acceleration (which we are unable to understand if it is engine or transmission  driven).
The vibration could be also reported as an oscillation of the engine output.
REVO says they cant't figure out the cause, so I will be driving my Audi for a few hundred of km is order to investigate the possible cause.
They also mentioned that I should investigate my dual mass freewheel and clutch, the main axle and rear differential (my AVANT is Quattro)  (=> total >6000 euro) but I think I can't be so unlucky....
Finally the said that the IAT raised to 90oC during testing (meaning I should also test my inter cooler), but today it was an extremely hot and humid day for tuning (T>34oC and relative humidity >75%).

Any opinions/suggestions would be appreciated.

If I were you I would try different (non REVO) tune.

aloakos, have you checked an oil intervention in flame chamber? This could be regular knock if the oil took place there because of the very small amount of oil can reduce significantly effective octane of air/fuel mixture.

I've even bumped into with this effect in my friend's Audi A4.

Sorry for the late reply,
Do you mean engine oil entering the combustion chamber of the engine via the piston springs or the spark plug?
I haven't seen any drop in oil level. I had a minor leak around #1 Spark plug coming from the valve cover gasket  which I have replaced.
I haven't done an engine compression test.

Also after changing the injectors to 380cc my fuel trims goes to -19,5% which indicates that the injectors haven't been registered or the new REVO map is not for 380cc.....

I am trying to figure out how to handle the issue with REVO.

I will report tomorrow that we have a meeting.

I also attach 5 runs logs made with APR logging methodology ( https://www.goapr.com/support/datalogging.php).

All runs made with 3rd gear in an uphill road.
For each run 2 attempts were made, one with full throttle and one with part throttle (ex. 51 means 5th run 1st attempt, 52 means %th run 2nd attempt).

When accelerating with part throttle (about 30%) the acceleration is much better.
Also when the specified pressure is >2000mb the hesitation starts and Adv.Timing is retarding >3o.
Finally at 2500 rpm there is a major overboost and (+250mb) and the actual lambda drops rapidly.

I will keep you informed. Angry

You have much better tuners in Greece, just ask REVO for refund and buy custom tune for example at www.revlimit.gr

As I said I was a happy REVO customer with my A3.
I was looking for a "safe" option.
My ride to work is mountainous road and all I needed was the power to overtake trucks end enjoy the ride.
I wasn't looking for the fastest setup.

REVO guys are willing and helpful but I think they aren't able/qualified to find the root of the problem, which probably is the remap, and they blame all the other systems of the car.

Tomorrow it will be my final effort with REVO.

Thank you very much.

PS does anyone has any ideas by checking the Logs? Any help would be great in order to make a case with my problem.

Get some ME7L logs. I don't see any timing data, torque request, load request, O2 sensor voltages etc. etc. etc.

I'm also not seeing any issues in those logs, or nothing like what you describe other than some overboost (which isn't even causing throttle cut).

What, exactly, is your complaint?

I tried MElogger with no success.
I will try again tomorrow.

The symptoms are:
Engine performance hesitation/oscillation of output.
When pressing throttle about 1/3 the output is oscillating.
When pressing more than 1/3 throttle the output is less and the oscillating is greater.
Thing are worse at 4th, 5th and 6th gears.
0-100 comes in almost 12 secs.
What I saw from logging is that the above occurs when pressure goes above 1bar.
With stock injectors the injection timing was from 20 to 38ms while LTFT were +-5%, now with 380cc timing is up to 19ms but LTFT are -20% and rising.



I hope I could describe the feeling.

Thanks again
Alex

PS REVO also installed LPG in my car.
In LPG the performance is less but the symptoms remain.
Also I found they used the pressure pipe in air intake to make a junction and feed LPG MAP and LPG Vaporiser with pressure info. I told them to repair as the same line feds DV valve control via N24o
