I'm still confused by this, it's certainly a bit different since I changed the FPR. I was going to swap it back but have had problems with the other car (Focus - fuel pump fuse blew!) so I'm not touching the Audi at present as I am relying on it.
I now seem to have 3 modes of operation: 1. Normal (most of the time) 2. Sluggish, rare as reported above, resolved by a quick "blip" of the throttle 3. Scalded cat!  The latter is new. Just using middling throttle (definitely not flooring it) it will sometimes take off much faster than I'm expecting. And you can really feel the power kick in as the flaps open at higher revs. Forgot to add, starting is still a bit "iffy"; I find that if it doesn't catch quickly I turn off and try again and it's usually OK 2nd (or 3rd) time.
