95 tsi, installed evo3 16g, had a few leaks in ic pipe, fixed then found one in the intake fixed that now as soon as i hit boost car losses all power!! is this a problem with my mas? I have injectors and a safc on the way will this help? maybe fuel cut off
 
if u have a boost gauge does it read any boost level ? Fuel cut shouldnt be happening even if lets say u go to 3psi on a stock pump wit a 16g, fuel cut, cuts the car off from gas so and the car vioently jerks foward, happens to me all the time cause i get boost crazy wit my t-25
 
I was wondering if you got a real evo3 16g or a cheap one off ebay. Also, what psi are you hitting when you lose power? you shouldn't hit fuel cut until your over 20 psi. If your losing all power at any boost levels, you must have more leaks, or a clogged cat. If it ran and boosted well before you put the new turbo on, start by checking everything you removed when you installed the turbo. Also, you should have replaced all gaskets when you did the install(not sure if you did or not).

Please give us more details of what's happening. You say right at boost threshold it loses all power? What happens to your boost reading when this happens? Do you have a log?
 
if it looses all its power and feels like you just stopped thats a good idea for fuel cut. The stock pump is good to about 16PSi. I wouldnt chance any more through there. you can get a 190fph pump and you dont have to run any fuel pressure regulators. good luck :thumb:
