Default Can anyone help me with my 98 A4 KO4 misfire problem??

My 98 A4/w AWE Ko4 kit misfires quite badly on low rpm/high load pulls. When the car is in lower gears (doesnt happen on the highway) say, 2nd gear at 2500 rpms, I'll give it a good amount of gas (doesnt have to be floored) and boost will begin to build strong...then BAM the car studders and I can hear a misfire under the hood..all power is lost. At higher rpm's...say 3200 and above...no problems. What could be causing these misfires? What blocks should I log with vag-com? Any ideas would be great!

Oh..also, the MAF had been replaced two weeks ago.

Default Start by logging blocks 003/031.

You can also do blocks 002/031 so you can see what the injectors are doing at that point.

Default Thanks...what should they be doing?? (More)

I have never used VAG-Com all that much. What should I be looking for? Thanks for your help!

Default Check out block 020...

See if the ecu is pulling any additional timing as the misfires occur.
