I thought chip is designed to work with stock 1.8T , perhaps your mods are causing problems ?

Default Got a VAG-COM?

check the long term fuel trim on block 032, and also watch the short term FT on block 033.

Spec for LTFT is +/- 10%, but ideally it should be as close to 0 as possibly. STFT should oscillate within +/- 10%. If under part throttle acceleration, you see it go over 10%, then you might have a hole in the fuel map. Negative % means rich, positive % means lean.

Also check your BPV. I have a Forge BPV, and it will flutter a little on low-boost acceleration.

Default Program unit not finished code?

what are the actual DTC numbers?

Program unit not finished code sounds like a bad chip.
