Ok. so I took the mitsu out today for the first time in a couple of days and I started to notice a little studder after a left turn. As the night went on I drove more and more and the more I noticed it. After a hard left turn it cuts out and studders almost like a blown intercooler pipe... but once I straiten back up it smothes out again. The clutch peddel doesn't stay on the floor like most people have said, it will return and I am honestly stumped as to where to start looking for the problem. Any suggestions? :confused:
 
check all of your electrical...like you grounds and your alt wires....guessing you still have your power steering it could be drawing so much power from that hard turn that it will almost kill the car and make it die....mine does that sometimes when i take a sharp turn and hit my brake pedal.....my friend said he reran his alt wires that go to the battery and he doesnt have that problem any more.....hopefully that could be your problem.....
 
well I checked all the electrical connections and everything was fine. It is still happening. Even on a full tank of gas. I'm also niticing that the car now will not build over 10 PSI sometimes and it is really sluggish and runs extremely rich when doing this. It does still boost normal sometimes, then sometimes I'm lucky to get even 10 PSI and it just kinda lugs along. I did a boost leak test and found nothing. My blow off valve has stopped working as well. Now I just get killer compressor surge every time I let off the gas. I've tried to adjust that as well. More problem keep coming up every time I drive this thing. Any other suggestions? :confused:
