okay so heres the deal, i was staging up to run at the track the other day, and my boost gauge went to 0 so i thought it was my boost gauge tweekin like usual when the hose get pinched, so i staged up and ran, after 1st car was sputtering and hit fuel cut at liek 6k with normal boost, then 2nd gear it sputtered again and i just shifted into 3rd, that was when my boost went to 2.0 bars and heard loud popping noises and fuel cutting so i let off and coasted all the way to the pit area to check for leaks and found that there was a hole on the hose that connects from the wastegate to the intake "wastegate solenoid?" which means infinite boost after i replaced it with a smaller vacuum hose my car boosted only 8psi and was idling rough and misfiring at idle, so my question is what do you think is causing it to mis fire and feel sluggish after that incident? sorry for the long post but just telling as it happened TIA
