Stalling Problem on 2G

[cmarrero]

I recently replaced my plugs with NGK's (BPR6EKN) and some new Magnacor wires. It seems like after that, my car seems to stall after hard acceleration and then a sudden stop. I also installed a Aftermarket BOV and an intake. Would having the BOV not vent back into the intake cause stall problems or is it something else? I have checked the gaps on the plugs as well as replaced all the wires (twice), so I don't think the wires or plugs can be the problem. Help...

yes, plug it back in. dont be a ricer.

Yep. You gotta recirculate buddy.

recirculate it or get a different maf that sits by your throttle body

I have a GM MAF inplace where the stock one goes. Do I need to move it after the turbo? Or is it better just to put the 1G BOV I took off and recirculate? Thanks again for the tips.

you have a GM MAF and no SAFC/VPC/etc.??? no wonder why you're stalling

and get some BPR6ES'

even with a MAF translator I need a SAFC?

 

[dsmturboawd]

uh yeah.

why do people buy shit they know nothing about.

The translator should be ok if you don't mind going under the hood a bunch....

however if you are in draw through you have to recirc no matter what you are using for air metering.

The other option is to move the maft in cabin (like I did).

Contrary to what Mr. Suspended said, you do not need an afc with the maft.

If you want to vent, you need to meter air after the maf, not just after the turbo.

I mounted the MAF right before the intake manifold and it seems to have solved my stalling problem. Thanks guys
