You may also be experiencing one of the downsides of remote remapping - not being able to tweak the 'map in real-time, not being able to dyno the car before and after, and not being able to data log and plot the results. Just because a remap file 'should' achieve XYZ results, doesn't mean that these results will be achieved by your car.
I relate to your frustration. The modding experience can be a long one. My 'map has been fine, but my suspension journey has been infuriating and expensive.

I hope that the spoofing is not being done since its somebody like Evolve - which seem to be quite a reputable tuner.
The second point you make I fully understand, but also find quite interesting. What are some of the things that could make a tune do 11.8 100-200kph on one car and 14.5 on another? Or even a smaller discrepancies?
And back to the topic at hand - is there anything physically with the car that could hold the power back even with a good tune? E.g. / or aside from my idea of full/stuck DPF?
