Sounds like a possible mechanical issue... The B5 is not a hard motor to tune at all...The only way I could see your issues is if there was something mechanically wrong causing it....As a rule the Werk's are very consistent in their manufacturing, but its not impossible for something to be wrong right off the bat with a isolated engine.....Who knows....but what your describing doesn't really sound like how the B5 normally acts.....
