you are still choking at high RPM due to something

I was looking at the graph and thinking the same thing.

100% sure that its the turbo running out of umph!
(as your tuner states)
I seem to remember you're running a TT S148 which is rated to 380bhp.
So very good figures.

IMO I would turn it down a bit to extend the life of the turbo.

No run at 1.4 bar? You wanted to test the better FMIC routing I believe.

How do you control your boost ?

We saw the same chocking issue and lower the boost at the end with ECU like this :
5000 1.6b
6000 1.4b
7000 1.3b (397.2HP)

7000@1.4b give the same number as 7000@1.3b but EGT are a bit higher and the engine start knocking (mod timing and fuel didn't change anything)

at 1.4bar it was making around the 380bhp ans spooling quicker so the new pipe roughts hav helped and this is y i can now run 1.5-1.6bar

the boost is contolled by a bliz spec R boost controller but i know my mapper allways mapps on the safe side he all ways has
