We recently installed a turbo back exhaust, intake, intercooler pipes and greddy type s bov to a well running stock 95 GST.

Now, the car chokes up after 4000 rpm almost like the power cuts off. I tried running searches on the board and have found several things to look for. Does anyone reading this have any related experiences or know where the problem lies.

I learned that it can be several things. Fuel cut off , boost leak, ect. We are currently checking boost pressure.

Another thing, we purchased the BOV off of Ebay. It was suppose to be new but did not come with any instructions. The BOV has two outlets and we currently only have one connected to the intake. Can this be our problem?

Thanks for any help.
 
I had almost the same problem with my setup after first installing. Check your IC connections because I didnt have my UICP on good enough and i was loosing alot of power from that. Then your bov needs to be adjusted to the proper setting, this may take some time because they are sensitive. Also, make sure you dont strip the adjustment bolt, I did that and was loosing alot of boost from that and i had to retap the hole with a larger screw. Good luck! :thumb: :talon:
