Sup Guys! Just a few weeks ago i was driving my car for a few minutes and out of no where the car shuts off and i try to turn it back on but no luck,so i wait a few minutes and then i try again and the car stars,So i asked some people what their thoughts were on this and they told me to look at my caps on my Ecu and to my suprise the caps were leaking,so i replaced the Ecu and it seems fine now but just yesterday Well i sorta ran into a little problem yesterday i recently installed my greedy profec b spec 1 and decided to go for a little ride,so i did and when i went WOT on 3rd gear and at 4K Rpm's looked at the boost gauge and it hit 20psi and then i felt fuel cut,so i let go after that. I have no idea what is going on,the boost controller is at low boost setting all the way at min. As you can see on my mods im running a 35mm external wastegate with a 15psi spring, I removed the internal wastegate and hooked some saftey wire to keep my wastegate hole open but im still hitting past 20psi,you think maybe the wastegates busted? Or maybe i hooked up the Greedy boost controller wrong? Im really confused guys. I have a 14b sitting in my garage but have had no time to install,do u think if i install the 14b and put back my stock o2 housing this will solve the problem. Allright guys any help or advice would be greatly appriciated,if your local and are willing to help me i can pay u some cash. Thanks guys i know i can count on u! Lates!
