Default lost power 2.7t

I bought my 2.7t in jan. The power seems to fluctuate alot, i think most of the time i have a good power shortage, the only reason i say think is because it never seemed very powerful, but it has torque. the other night i stomped it it and took off faster than i've ever felt, wow i wish it did that every time i got on it. 1st thing i thought of were failing diverter valves.....replaced with 710n's and that made no difference at all. I think the next step is to have it pressure tested. Is there somewhere local to have this done? I live in NOVA. Any other comments suggestions are appreciated, i would think if it was running on 5 cylinders it would be pretty noticeable.

Default mines like that too....

Sometimes I think it a psychological thing....
I have new DV's, pressure test etc...Sometimes it hits and sometimes it doesn't.

Default Mine did that and the EGT sensor was faulty. Replaced the drivers side unit and all is good.

VAG it but mine initially didn't show up wit VAG. I was merely getting misfire codes.
