Default So In my quest for my lost power, I swapped MAF with a buddy and boom

power is back however, im only gettin 150g's on the vag isnt that still low? I do have a t-28 and all I should be moving more air than that, although it was the 1.3 chip, do you guys think I may have a vac leak or something else?? any help would be nice.

Default What year is your car? (EDIT)

How hard was it to swap out the MAF? I am having power loss problems also and I was told to swap my '97 MAF with a '99 or later to get it to work with my chipped car. Something about "maxing out" the MAF.

Default your stg3 right, I in theory should move more air than you cause the t-28 is larger,

I didnt get a chance to vag with my 1.5 chip, im assuming air would go up but I dont know how much.

Default Its possible but i haven't heard of a chipped car maxing out the stock maf.

I may go to a vr6 maf but my car seems to be happy.

Default I just copied the columns from the generated CSV file.

There is a setting on VAG-COM that lets you log up to 3 blocks IIRC.
