Sudden Power Loss

Limp mode feels more like rev-limiting (cutting fuel) vs. only being able to get up to 1.3 or 1.4 bar like you have.  I tended to notice it more under load at low RPMs, I guess it is a power-cut mode.
Limp mode... limp mode seems like it may be a good 'valet' mode in the future.  Is there a way to force it or is this a terrible idea?

Speaking of signs and timing, I fully blamed reading all of the recent ecu / boost / 'I'm Tired of This' threads on my latest problem.  Based on the latest posts I can't wait for my steering rack and charging system to fail soon on my 'worthless' Audi...  Oh, wait, there was a 200q20v Love thread, makes me feel better.

Good luck with your boost issue, keep us posted.

Nathan
