Do you have an induction kit fitted? I've found induction kits that aren't enclosed will suffer from heat soak. My GTi 6 was gutless at high speed, couldn't even get to the redline in 5th. Refitted the standard airbox with a Green filter = problem solved.

well, fixed the leak,and at the same time i added some archoil to the fuel.
what a difference.
The car now cleanly pulls straight to the limiter on the 1st 3 gears, and carries on pulling like a train.
Job done.
Thanks for all the advice and replys
