If you still have the Bosch MAF then select the Bosch settings (1 to 5) The Pierburgh setting (6 to10) is so you can use a cheaper Pierburgh MAF should the Bosch MAF fail.

These synergy 1& 2 have been known to make the HPFP leak after a time, quite a few R40 owners have found out to their cost using one, we therefore opt for the 160 upgrade, the synergy is a tool that tricks the ECU, and therefore over fuels the car, would never use one on my cars my opinion only each to there own.

Take a look at the intercooler hose, for split or if it is weak, maybe porous sticky etc, also if not already done clean out the EGR, and manifold and the MAP sensor which needs to be removed if cleaning the manifold,

I agree with Arctic. Overfueling/overboosting an engine seems like a bad idea to me. Doing that to a sick engine seems like a really bad idea.
